It will certainly help with the healing of the wound and accelerate the healing process. Now, because its 35000 I leave the choice to you. Without it also, it will heal but the chance for leaving a mark will be higher and will take longer. Hence, is it not absolutely necessary but if cost if not a heavy constraint then you may get it done.Hope this is helpful.
