Samantha Settle Mar 5, Feb 14, Animals Jan 11, I had to have stitches when I was six, because I crashed into a table and had a huge gash above my right eye. Right before school picture day! Years later I still remember how gross it ended up. More recently, around a year ago, I was camping with my dad in the winter when he cut himself on the ice slicer we were ice fishing and I ended up waiting with my cabin counselor for six hours until her came back with twelve stitches.
Jan 15, Jess Snider Aug 29, My son had a bicycle accident which he split his chin open pretty bad. He had to have quite a lot of stitches by a plastic surgeon to close it up.
I was really worried about how bad his scar would be. I decided to give the dermalmd scar treatment serum a try. It worked really well at diminishing his scar from red to white and making it less noticeable. Mollie Feb 13, Glad you're son is ok!
