I've been dealing with a lot of ingrown hairs on my legs from shaving, and it's really frustrating. I've tried waxing multiple times, but those pesky ingrown hairs just won't disappear. It's starting to feel hopeless. Is there any solution to finally get rid of them once and for all?

My wife has a neck TB scar just above her collarbone on the left side, and it's really affecting her emotionally. She's feeling pretty down about how it looks. Would a scar removal cream like Mederma or No Marks work, or should we consider laser treatment or plastic surgery? I've attached a photo of the scar for reference. What would be the best option for her?

This scar would respond best to surgery. Mederman or nomarks will not help at all
