I Have a Vertical Forehead Scar and Was Wondering if There is Any Non Surgical Ways to Reduce Visibility? (photo)

Asked By:oddness in San Antonio

I am aware there are ways to reduce the visibility but unsure how much they will help me personally, especially because it is vertical and it is in the middle of my forehead. The color has faded through the years but it remains visible mostly because is is indented, maybe there is a way to smooth it out and get it level with my skin. I know my scar could be much worse but it still bothers me a lot. It is a few years old, i am going to attach photos also. thanks !!
