Eyebrow Scar Removal and Waxing? (photo)

Abbey64172Dec 4, 2012
i recently had an accident and have to have 2 layers of stitches done on my eyebrows (one for the skin and one for the muscle) i got the stitches taken out about 2 weeks ago but i am wondering when i can start getting them waxed again? also if you have advice about permanent makeup or hair transfers to the eyebrow area? i need to see how to get this scar disguised as best as possible. I'm honestly really stressed about it.

I would discuss your request with the American Burn Association.  Every state has a regional burn center for the most part.  Donation of skin is a very noble act.

The bump likely represents scar tissue, a cyst, or foreign body. Scar revision can help fix all of these three issues through surgical excision of the area of scar tissue.

This white scar on the lip should be excised and I would send the specimen for pathologic examination as well.
