Fell over when I was 3 years old I had stitches but as a kid pulled them off as it was itchy and uncomfortable this led to my scar being shiny all my life. I don't mind if theres a scar there as long as the shiny ness is gone? Any advice?

I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist for after care. I recommend silicon gel with growth factors and hyperbaric oxygen to promote healing. Any scarring can be improved with lasers and microneedling/prp. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer
