I have had glue stitching for 15 years. Is there any way of removing it?

Hello, you need to go dermotology and do a skin test then they will tell you what kind of product you need to use.

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.

Almost for sure you are not seeing the glue any longer. Probably you have what we call a "traumatic tattoo". That is where dirt or other foreign material got into the cut when it was repaired and caused a pigmented area. There are various ways to treat these ranging from laser to surgery. Good luck!
