Are there any home remedies or OTC products that really work well?

Yes, I do have stitches currently, but when they come out, what can I use?

Hi:
For lacerations, old scars and of course every Mom's friend, the stretch marks, I have used Maderma. Wait until your laceration is fully healed and follow the instructions on the box and tube.
I have had great results with it and I am quite impressed with it. It is OTC and costs around $6 - $8.00 a tube. But a little I found out goes a long way. I particularly dislike the smell, but the smell goes away very quickly. Within a minute or two.
Here is their website and get the information you need and also in the site you can print out a $2.00 off coupon.

I thought it was worth the risk of spending less than $10.00 for deep lacerations to my face that they were gauranteed to scar they we so deep. So I took the chance, got the product, used it, it worked, I'm happy now that I took the chance and had positive results.
Be safe and be well
