Thick upper eyelid scar with knots (Photo)

emmydonayJun 12, 2024
Please I need help what I should do with my hypertrophic scar, I'm 6 months post op and I have a lot of pain in my scar. Can I use a dermaroller 0.2 mm and rolling on the scar? Of course not directly on the eye but if I take the skin upwards, is it possible to work? I can’t remove more skin because I can’t close the eye, the doctor took to much skin. Please help me, I really hate myself because of this scar.
