Hi everyone,

Badly need recommendation for surgeon specialised in scar revision. I hope to minimise (since can't be removed totally) a stich scar on my face. I've done alot research but the docs are mainly specialised in eye, nose, ears...Be it in sg / korea... Help appreciated

Thanks! :wink:

You might want to check with the local hospitals. I have 2 huge scars on my abdomen due to appendectomy complication & had injections to reduce to scarring. The injections were administered by my doctor at the outpatient clinic at Tan Tock Seng Hospital.

However the reaction of your skin to the injection is rather subjective. For me, the scars didn't minimise much unfortunately.
