I have a scar on the front of my shin that I want to cut out with a scalpel. My plan is to use fish hooks to pull the skin together after the scarelease tissue has been excised. How long can I leave hooks embedded in my skin before they have to be changed out, and how deep do the incisions need to be? Is superglue effective at keeping wounds closed? The scar is one inch long and one quarter inch wide.

Just leave it until you can afford proper surgery you mong

You're going to get infected.

Normal stitches would be ripped apart due to the location on the front of the skin. I think only fish hooks would be strong enough, and no doctor would do that for me.

Look up on staples or zipline stitches. Your fishhook idea is retarded.

Zipline? It's a strip of tape. That shit isn't strong enough. Staples are one step above string. I would take one step and the staples would be ripped apart. I've had it happen before on another injury. All the fancy proper medical stuff is useless under stress.

This is a god-awful idea, you're likely to just end up with another scar to be honest (or worse, an infection).
Go talk to a dermatologist.
And why do you want to remove it, anyway?

1. DIY surgery sounds like a fucking terrible idea, and asking 4chan how to do it is even worse
2. It's your shin, who cares?

Why the fuck would you give a shit about a scar on your shin? Oh wait, I forgot, you're just a shitty troll.
