Q.

My 1.5 year old son got injured on his left eyebrow. The doctor gave 2 options-either to let the wound heal on its own - this may leave a scar. Or give him general anesthesia and stitch the wound up. This will also leave a scar but will be smaller. We decided not to stitch as poor baby was crying inconsolably even going to the hospital. I am worried how bad the scar will look, will it hide below the eyebrows. What else should we take care of so that we can minimize the appearance of the scar. Adding photo of his scar
