How do I get rid of my old scars?
It depends on where the scar is, and who performed the scar, and why. For example, if it's an abdominal/intestinal scar, where it's sunk in and a surgeon did it, that might be an area where scar improvement may be beneficial. If it's an area where there's some redness, again, it may be possible to improve those scars. Other areas, if the scars are over a joint, or there's tension, it may not be possible to improve those scars, but scar invasion may be an alternative for all those treatments. In term of laser treatment for old scars, it is generally not very successful.
