Facial Scar Treatmen: Facial scars, once in place can never be removed. They can be made less noticeable. In general, most facial scars take approximately one year to mature. If the scars are still present, interventions such as scar revision, dermabrasion, and lasers can sometimes help. Most of the scar gels have limited efficacy. Consult a facial scar expert for the best treatment for your specific scars.
