Hi- 3 weeks ago a golfing club (putter) fell on my nose bridge and it’s still quite red / dark / marked. Can anyone help me with best treatment to do? I just started using Avene brand - cicalfate post procedure emulsion yesterday. I’m using sunscreen. I also ordered platos scar serum. My skin does scar / marks easily because of my skin color. Do you think this will fade eventually? Or will I maybe need laser? Photos difficult to upload but including what i can. Thank you!

Hello, Thank you for your enquiry. The photographic information is very helpful. You have several options in the order of my preference: 1) Make-up artists can camouflage the scar with microblading or nano-needling2) You can have a scar revision to narrow it but the scar could stretch again3)...
