It is best that you have this checked by a plastic surgeon or dermatologist for proper evaluation. Scar revision through surgery and laser treatments may be indicated. Take care and do keep us posted.

Wecome to MH and this forum annan , I am not certain what country you live in till you fill in your profile however here in the US we have Laser that works on scars very effectively, also other countries have laser treatment for scars , birthmarks and other blemishes. I have had a birthmark removed successfully by laser, the cost has come down considerably.No one has to live with scars anymore, put this into our Dermatology forum for further answers.

Laser may be more expensive and they may require more sessions for effective results. This depends on the extent and depth of the scar. For small scars, then Laser may be helpful. Microdermabrasion may even help. How large is this scar?

The silicon scar gel sheets I used were provided to be by a plastic surgeon after surgery on my cheeks, and although they did reduce the scar by somewhere around 80%, I still got laser scar removal to completely erase the scar. As Grace pointed out, the genital skin is definitely much more thin, sensitive, and delicate, so products that should be used on it will be recommended to you by your dermatologist.

so i gotta wait before buying that, and i would love to try the laser thing but i know it will cost too much. im not a rich girl lol. especially to throw away and something like that.

Thanks for you advise- It saved me a dermatol. consultation fee . Laser surgery and the most cost efficient silicone gelpads would likely be an option. Yes, I was told this skin condition can get worst given exposure to the insects. I may have to make DEET as my routine skin care product. Thanks again.

On June 1st I had surgery to remove the loop recorder and my doctor hoping to lessen the scar cut around the old scar in the hopes that it would heal better this time. I had the bandages removed the 10th of June and my doctor was very happy with the way it looked, but then again last time when he removed the bandages he was happy as well.

The surgeons did a wonderful job with my surgeries, however, as I got older the scar began to become more noticeable. It has become more raised and defined, and my lip has become more uneven. I was wondering, as an adult, what are my options in regards to improving the appearance of the scar? Obviously there is surgery, but if I do get surgery, what's the cost, how long does it take to heal, and what's the probability of having a negative outcome?

I have a scar on my penis aroud the area of the foreskin. Im circumsized and have had no issues in the past. It was caused from friction in my earlier days as a kid masturbating.

your link just said that the CO2 laser works really well with great cosmetic results. That laser, CO2 laser, is a relatively new laser, and does have a wide range of conditions that it can treat. Though there are numerous other lasers that can be used. Going for surgery may only cause more scar tissue growth and leave a similar marking on the lip. Talk to your doctor about your options and then decide from there.

Have you ever seen a dermatologist? They may be able to do a laser treatment that would help most of all. Everything else may just smooth the lips but not heal the scar. I see you don't have any funds for cosmetic work but maybe if you have an idea of cost, you can save for such as well as get some additional recommendations for products that might work to reduce the appearance of the scar. There are a plethora of products to try.

m interested in the best treatment that will remove these scars as close to 100% as possible without leaving any additional scars or scar like areas in the place of the depressions. Can anyone tell me what procedures would most likely achieve the best results and suggest any top notch doctors around the US that could do this? I am willing to travel for treatment to see a top specialist if needed.

t usually leave a scar. One medicine which has been advised by many dermatologists for scar diminishing is contractubex gel/cream. You can seek your dermatologist/surgeon’s opinion before using this cream. Otherwise you can go in for glycolic peals, laser treatments and pressure dressings. Severe scarrings may need skin grafting by a plastic surgeon.

i just resigned myself that I have to put up with scar tissue for 5 months in order to have better sight. How normal is scar tissue after cataract surgery? why can't he take the scar tissue out now instead of waiting 5 months?

t think I would have gotten a better result with laser-assisted, at least not worth its cost. It was a higher out of pocket cost than for the premium toric lens which was $1333 out of pocket. With insurance, the basic surgery and basic lens costs ended up only around $350 for my part of the cost in comparison.

Speak with your doctor about the best options given its appearance for improving vision. Dr. Feldman Sandy T. Feldman, M.D., M.S.

After it healed (FWIW I used neosporin) and I guess the scab fell off, a scar appeared in the form of a lighter skin tone where the circular break had occured. The rest of my shaft is some-what dark, so this spot-scar stands out TO ME, and is inappropriately but frequently bothersome. Well I just want to know if this lighter circle will ever fade back to my normal skin tone?
