Hi, can you tell me how thick of a scar can laser therapy be done?
Over a year ago I got burn with an acid based chemical and after surgery I developed Hypertrophic scaring. The places I got burnt were my lower face, my neck, my chest and my hands. The scars have since moved up my face around my mouth and nose. I am afraid of surgery because I fear the scars will return. Can you shed some light on my situation.
