i have a 15 cm long scar on my left cheek, I got it when I was 6 months old while playing with a blade. I have never applied any scar removal cream and not even any laser treatment, Can anyone please suggest for the best possible treatment. thank you

Answer: Facial scar Unfortunately, your scar runs counter to the lines of tension in the face which makes it more visible. One simple potential solution is to purchase Dermablend cream and powder makeup in the appropriate skin tone to camouflage the scar. The photo does not visualize the depth of the scar. It is possible to consider scar revision, preferably serial excision of limited segments to produce a thinner scar but this would involve a healing period and there are no guarantees. There is no such thing as scar removal cream. Once the skin has been breached, there will always be a scar. I also recommend that you avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen religiously.
