When I had cleft lip surgery, only my nose and lips were treated, so I looked for a dermatology clinic in Ulsan to try to make the severe philtrum scar look a little less noticeable. I found a dermatology clinic that said they would do laser treatment on scars and received treatment, about 5 sessions for 300,000 won. During the consultation, they told me that scars like this are deep and won’t respond well to laser, but my personality is very much the type to think, let’s just try it first, so I went ahead. I started from the day of the consultation, and it seemed like I got it once every 3 to 4 weeks. After each session, the philtrum area would be red for about 3 days. I applied a regeneration cream every evening, but in the end it didn’t work well, just as the doctor said, so I stopped.
At the moment, I’m thinking about philtrum surgery.
