I have scars on my left foot from an accident 6 months ago. How can they be removed non-surgically? (photos)

anuja711Apr 13, 2018
Hello, I met with an accident last year in October where a truck passed over my left foot. It passed quite slowly so I had a lot of injury luckily including just a hairline fracture under the third toe and quite a few deep wounds. It's been 6 months and I have many spot scars on my foot which are black in colour, also my foot has blackened overall compared to my other foot. I want to get rid of the black spots. What do you suggest for such scar removal without any surgery ?

Thanks for your question. I work with a very busy endocrine surgeon and this question has come up before. The likelihood is very high that your insurance will not cover scar removal or plastic surgery closure of the wound at the initial thyroidectomy. The good news is that scars from thyroid...
