Question : Hi, good evening. I am a 27 year old female. I had a baby 3 years ago and had some tearing during birth of my daughter which resulted in scarring. Is there some procedure I can have to permanently remove that scar tissue? I have read horror stories from women with similar issues where it grows back. It has halted my sex life it is just destroyed my self esteem, very self conscious about it. Any advice?

Brief Answer:
Scar can be removed.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
I have seen the scar in the image attached. This scar can be removed surgically or can be removed with the help of laser treatment. There is no need to feel depressed and self conscious. You can consult your gynecologist for surgical scar removal or a dermatologist for laser treatment.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
