Surgery? To remove old burn mark on leg?
I have a burn mark on my right leg , its about 6 inches long. I had it for like 7 years. I got burnt by boiling water.[Its hurt alot] Its not as bad as some burn marks obviously, But it still bothers me I dont like wearing shorts or anything that shows it. I would like to know if there is any kind of Cosmetic Surgery Or Laser Treatment that I could do. If so much would it cost? I tried looking online but I dont really know what it would be called so google wasnt helping. thank you.

- I have no idea regarding surgeries. however, I would offer advice of using pure cocoa butter soap "Palmer's Cocoa Butter Soap" and Sesame Oil, or Vitamin E oil to fade the scar. Good luck.
- You would need to see a plastic surgeon for a consultation. This type of surgery is expensive (thousands of dollars usually) and is not covered by insurance.
- You would really need to go to a dermatologist and discuss this. It depends on the burn, and your avatar is black - so, I assume you are. There are issues with pastic surgery on black skin - scarring and such. Surgery might make the burn look worse. A doctor would really have to look at the scar to evaluate whether or not surgery would help. Good luck.
- use bio oil , ive had many scares on my legs but now they are very faint , you have to use it 3 times aday tho, its only about 10pound form most stores such as superdrugs , boots , its worth ago, many women use it for stretch marks .
