How to Remove Indented Scars Left by Stitches?

August 17, 2010
Asked By:cmich in China

I had eye bag surgery about 16months ago. Although it looks much better now, but now i have a scar which disturbs me. It is a very fine line, bit indented, along the stich line. How to remove this without surgery? How to make it elevated and flat with the rest of my skin? Can maderma or bio-oil work? Or laser resurfacing, chemical peeling? Or will it heal by itself? Please help, i really hate it.
