Scar revision/treatment, sensitive area - can I get this minimized? (photos)

January 7, 2022
Asked By:felamt in North Kingstown, Rhode Island

I have about 1.5” horizontal scar on my right buttock from an excised abscess. It’s been ~9 months and I’ve considered getting a tattoo to cover the scar but will have to wait longer. It’s indented, and feels a bit hard to the touch and has a raised bump. I’m 5’2” and 125lbs pretty petite. Can I get this scar minimized? Something?
