My 2 yr old daughter was bitten by a dog a week ago. she got two stitches right under her lip. what can i put on it to reduce the scar? mederma?

Sure: Oh, poor baby! Sure Mederma is fine to use nightly on the scar. During the day be sure to use a good zinc oxide sunscreen on the area to be sure and avoid sunburn, which will just exacerbate the problem area.
