I have a large depressed scar on my face that runs vertical from my temple to the top of my cheek bone. I have heard everything from Collagen injections every 4 to 6 months to carefully applying bleaching to it. How can I have this scar removed without keloid scarring?

Scar on cheek
You can never completely remove a scar. Sometimes you can improve one. But first, you need to get the proper history of the scars etiology. Was it closed with suture or left to heal on its own? Was it infected? How did it happen, etc..? These are just a few questions I would ask.
