Can The Mark Of Stitches On Face Be Removed Permanently?

SIR/MA AM, My brother recently met with an accident and has got stitches in his upper lip outer portion and on his nose ,between the eyes.It has been 2 days only.Now the problem is that he is very much worried about the marks of stitches that might stay on his face because he says that those marks will look hideous.So I want to ask whether it is possible to remove the marks of stitches?. Can the marks be permanently removed?
