Specializes in Cosmetic Surgery

Yes it will scar: If you had a 2cm cut then yes, it will form a scar. Also scars naturally mature over a few months and if you protect it from the sun it should fade over time. See your local plastic surgeon and s/he can monitor the scar and if needed change management if the need arises.
