[quote=Anonymous]My daughter had a serious scar on her face that I insisted be stitched by a plastic surgeon in the ER. When the stitches were removed 2 weeks later she told me to use on a 3 day rotation for a year: Moderna with spf, retin a and a smashed vitamin E pill (one day 1, other day 2, last one day 3, repeat). Keep it out of the sun at all costs. She said it would look bad for first 6 months but then by 12 months it should greatly improve and she was right. This was 10 years ago. If you’re looking for laser treatments, I believe you need to be 12 months out (this is what a cosmetic dermatologist would be for). Otherwise I would stick with a cosmetic surgeon. [/quote]
