I thought this was really interesting. 3D printing has been around a few years but it still blows my mind. But I could see it being a scar treatment in the future...

Sorry if this has already been posted before. This site has changed so much since I've last been on and I was having trouble searching old info on here.

that is interesting. i saw they invented artificial skin, mostly for burn victims i think. but couldnt you just somehow remove some layers of skin and put that on like you would for a burn victim? sounds gross but it seems like it would work.
