The following measures are recommended: 1. Laser therapy can be used, as it shortens scar recovery time, promotes wound healing, reduces scar hardness, and improves surface irregularities. 2. Patients may use anti-inflammatory medications, which help alleviate pain, promote tissue regeneration, improve inflammatory responses, and reduce scar hardness. 3. Patients may consider using fillers, which can fill in scar depressions, improve the appearance of scars, reduce scar elevation, and improve scar firmness.
