How many ways of operation there is to correct genua valga (knock knees) in adults? how large the scar will be?

Talk to orthopedics: You should really talk to your orthopedic surgeon about this. Find an Orthopod you trust, i would even get a second opinion if I was still uncomfortable. As far as the scar that is the least of the worries.
