Hi, I had browlift with internal sutures 7 months ago. I have two scars, bald patches which are indented in my scalp. They dip inward and are really sensitive to touch all around. After staples were pulled out, they bled and opened some. Now the scar on the right is large. It's shiny and I can't see any hair follicles. To make it worse, it seems like the stretched incisions have caused my forehead to settle with small lines and wrinkles. Is there anything I can do to at least fix these scars?
