White Surgical Scar on Stomach

Tags: belly, scar
I had surgery to remove tumor...all clear now, but am left with white scar. Scar is very flat, about 6 inches long on my stomach around my belly button. I have heard of new laser that would help with pigmentation??? Is it true? Anything else you could recommend? Any surgery? I want my belly back scar-free! Thanks for your help.

I disagree that laser will re pigment a WHITE FLAT scar. Try tattooing by an expert tattoo artist for best results. Good Luck

Laser would likely help promote repigmentation in your white scar. Also, I would not recommend laser or any other treatment for the type of scar you descibe. The scar is unlikely to change with intervention and could get worse and you could waste money trying.
