Question
A child collided with the corner of a table ten days ago, leaving a scar about 2 millimeters long, with the center being deeper and the sides shallower. Initially, the doctor performed disinfection and applied a bandage, and it has now healed but left a white scar. What methods can be used to flatten the scar, or what medication should be applied to improve the appearance of the scar?
Answer
Scars on a child’s forehead are quite common during childhood. Generally speaking, children do not need to worry excessively and it is recommended to observe the scar carefully over a period of time, allowing it to naturally improve as the child grows. If the condition of the scar does not improve, consider applying scar cream to the affected area to further improve the appearance of the scar.
