Is my 3 year old left with a scar?
My 3 year old fell and hit his forehead on his wooden toy box about 6 weeks ago. As a result he was left with a small cut on his forehead. Once it scabed over he kept picking the scab off. The mark is flat but is still reddish/pink. Will this fade away or is it perminent? Thank you!

Hello..... You should have attached photo of it for better understanding.. If he has not been received stitches scar fades on its own... Scar formed by wound contraction and retraction don't fade.. Attach photo of your son and resend your question.......
