Solution For Burnt Scar On Face..
Dear doctor, I'm Harish from Bangalore 25yrs old. I have a burnt scar(4mm width & 15mm length) on my face which was happened when I was 6 yrs old. Is there any treatment to close this scar?

Hi Harish,
Welcome to HCM.
Plastic surgery with skin grafting can correct the scar on your face. For this, going to a skin specialist (dermatologist) is not useful. You must consult a plastic surgeon, who is a superspecialist and if he says nothing can be done then there may be some technical reasons which prevent correction of the defect by plastic surgery.
Wishing you all the best.
