Asked By:anonymous191

Hi. Several years ago I experienced an accident which necessitated skin grafts. The doctors took the grafts from my thighs, and ever since there has been unsightly scarring there. I want to be able to wear shorts and skirts again without feeling self-conscious, so are there any procedures that can lessen the appearance of the scarring?
