Hi,

Cosmetic treatment has achieved big strides in recent times and therefore small scars and stitch marks may be decreased easily.

There are many treatment options available and local applications and other minor surgical procedures using collagen and silicone have been devised. However, exact treatment plan cane be made only by a dermatologist or plastic surgeon.

Please keep the faith here, but I hope that you are wise to understand replicating what has been developed naturally is difficult.

i hope that this helped you. there is further information available and you may let me know if you may need any more of that
