Can Old Cut Mark On Face Be Removed?

My friend has a cut mark on her left cheek. It was incident of her childhood, she fell down on a spoon lying thereby and got injured by spoon at her face. Wound was recovered but a cut mark is still remained which makes her face little ugly. So my question is whether that cut mark can be removed from her face(cheek)?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

Why not?.. Your friend might be alright. He has cut mark..that is, linear scar due to injury in childhood. You consult aesthetic dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Scar revision or laser resurfacing may be done to improve the look of your friend.
I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
