Is There Any Cream To Apply To Stitched Area On Lips?
I had a accident last week on Sunday. I fell on my face due to which my upper lip got wounded. Doctors had to apply 2 stitches on my upper lip. He said those were cosmetic stitches and would negligible scars. Is it true? HOw soon will the scars fade. Any ointment or cream which i can apply to level my skin around the lip area...

HI
Well come to HCM
Yes if there is lacerated wound on the face then this is being taken care for cosmetic result and material being used in that manner only, the healing process on the face area is very fast and this may not need any thing to apply just wound can be kept clean with plain water, hope this information helps.
