Should I See a Plastic Surgeon While I'm Healing from Accident Lacerations (to Help Reduce Scarring)?

I Was in an Accident One Month Ago and Had a Laceration on my Forehead, Between my Eyes, Requiring 16 Stiches. The Doctor removing the stiches recommended mederma after the stiches were removed, which I have been using. (the cream with spf 30) Should I see a dermatologist or plastic surgeon while I am healing? Is mederma the best product, I have also heard about silicone sheets. I am 53 years old, by the way.
