I've had this old scar on my cheek from an abscess for 67 years now and I'm really bothered by it. Would plastic surgery be a good option to remove or reduce it? What kind of results can I expect and are there any risks I should know about?

There are a lot of treatment options for scars available as of today. The treatment depends on the duration of scar and facilities available. The advance treatment option includes Fractional CO2 lasers in multiple sessions. Topical medications may be of little use and will supplement laser treatment.Other treatment option include dermaroller. Plastic surgery of scar is seldom done now-a days.

View allMy mom has been living with neurofibromatosis type 1 for over a decade. She had plastic surgery on her face, but only a few moles could be removed the rest are too small or deep. Where should I take her for proper surgery or any other effective treatment options?
For proper management of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), especially with regard to facial neurofibromas, your mom should seek care from a multidisciplinary team, including a geneticist, dermatologist, and potentially a plastic surgeon specializing in NF1. Other treatment options may include medication and radiation therapy. A neurofibroma clinic or a hospital with a strong NF1 program would be ideal.

I'm 20 years old but my breast size is small and I feel like I look much younger, more like 14 or 15. Honestly, it's making me feel pretty self-conscious because a lot of girls my age seem to have bigger breasts. I feel like I don't look mature. Is there a way I can enlarge my breasts?
This is completely depends on individual's growth variability and hormonal function. You should not feel like so, that you are not mature if your other hormonal functions are well and good. Be stress free and take proper diet.
