advise for scar on face
so i busted thru my bottom lip, and it has left a tiny scar! it has been a little over a month since the injury, and, with the exception of redness, its its not open anymore. however, the light casts a bad shadow on this scar becuase it looks to be depressed inward.i use tons of topicals, but none seem to be doing the trick. i hear the next step is laser treatment. im wondering if laser treatments will give me good results or if its just a waste of money. i know there is nothing to get rid of the entire scar, but perhaps theres a way to make it not indent?

Hi,
Since this is obviously on your face, I would seek more than one opinion with a cosmetic surgeon. It seems to me (and of course I am not a doctor) but that there may be at least two more options Vs Laser treatment. One being injections to build up the tissue and another being a scar revision. I'm not sure if laser treatment would help with the indent, it may make the scar it's self look smoother, but also may be a risk to the surrounding tissue and it could always be worse than before you started. It's worth it to do your research though.
Best wishes,
Nallie
