How To Fix An Ugly Wrinkle On The Site Of Thyroid Surgery?
Hello, I had a thyroid surgery done almost three weeks ago and the surgery site looks horrible. It doesn t even look like a scar (which I wouldn t mind), it just looks like a wrinkly folded up mess (don t know how to describe it better ). I know a lot of people who had had this surgery (including my mother), but I have never seen anything like mine. Looks like a ninety year old woman s skin. My question is: do you think that this can be fixed?

Hi.
Yes it can, using a skin graft either taken from another part of your body or an artificial one, we can excise the existing scar and place a better suited graft and solve the issue. Speak to your doctor about the same.
Best wishes.
