I've had these stitch marks on my hand for about three years now, and it's starting to bother me because everyone notices them and asks about it. Is there a way to get rid of them?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Stitch marks can be treated with the help of topical creams containing silicone gel, such as Mederma. You can apply a thin layer of Mederma on the stitch marks twice a day for several months to see improvement. Additionally, you can also consider laser therapy or microdermabrasion treatments to further reduce the appearance of the scar.

I'm struggling a lot with melasma and it's been going on for about 2 years now. I've seen so many doctors and tried different treatments, but nothing seems to work. Is there a permanent solution to this issue? It's getting quite frustrating.
Consult a dermatologist for personalized treatment, and consider combination therapies like chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser therapy, and topical creams containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, or retinoids, which can help manage melasma, although a complete cure is challenging.
