Generally there are few lasers that will helpt to soften scars.

Remove scars from a lip lift?
I had a permanent lip augmentation 2 years ago called a lip lift....it is very similar to a lip vermillion where the lips are pulled up (like a face lift) and stitched to it's position. I have no implants, fillers or lip injections.) I have scars around the border of my lips from this procedure. The scars are thin, white lines. My problem is that my scars feel very firm and tight. I was wondering if there are any lasers that would help?
