How to get rid of stitches mark on my face?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely see Dr: A dermatologist or plastic surgeon can best advise you how to lighten stitch marks. Since it is on the face, you should rely on an expert's assistance. If hasn't been at least 6 months since had stitches, wait, as cuts don't start to look better for 3-6 months, and may improve on own. If >6 mo, see dr.
