Dear Ma'am,

Sorry to hear about your child's problem. There are various ointments available in the market to reduce the intensity of a scar but they only work when the scar is well healed. One of them is known as No mark and the other one is Mederma. You can apply this twice over the area for 1 month.
Please make sure that there is no infection in the wound.

Hoping for the best

Hi,

The mark post a clean and lacerated wound usually heals but leaves a scar which looks worrisome in the beginning but as the child grows the skin become firm and the scar lightens and grows smaller in size as compared to the surface area of the rest of the body.

Post an injury if the skin is approximated by suturing then the scar is much lesser.In future after the child grows if the mark is still causing cosmetic issues then a plastic surgeon could be consulted.

Hope to have answered your query.
Take Care.
