There is some type of vitamin capsule you can brek them open and rub it on them (I think vitamin E) Go into one of those nature cures all stores (I usualy do not promote that kind of ****) and ask them they will tell you for sure

There's a product called mederma, never used it yet, but look like it should work... although all products do on their commercials... it's worth a try.

The more expensive but only sure-fire way is to get plastic surgery. Not sure how expensive but I guarantee you they will do the best job for you. I guess it depends on what it is worth to you. Consider boxers, they will get scar tissue from cuts smoothed out so they are not as prone to getting cut in the same place again. Oh, and to keep their mug from looking too beat up and battle worn.

I'm a med student and am working with a facial plastic surgeon for some parts of the summer.

The only way to get rid of long standing scars is to use a laser. Natural products MAY work, but there is no evidence that they do - especially if the scar is older and very noticeable.

The guy I work with is in London, Ontario and if you'd like contact info, please e-mail me at drspd@yahoo.com

In a nut shell - they bring the scar tissue down to the same level as your other tissue. This results in swelling, redness, and looks pretty bad for the first week or so. You'll be instructed to put polysporine on the scar for the first 10 days and sunblock (at least SPF 15) on the scar following that for the next 6 months. At 6 months you will have absolutely no traces of the previous scar.

I'm not 100% sure about the pricing... but it usually it's THAT bad, and depends on how much the scar is really bothering you.
