I got this skingraft scar over 20 years ago. I have spoken to a few doctors since and have been turned away from laser resurfacing since I am african american and there is high risk for complication, as well as scar excision because where my scar is located seems to be in a bad location to excision. I was wondering if anyone out there had any other suggestions. I am willing to exchange this scar for another one or even just smooth it as much as possible. Thank you!
