I have indented red scar above my lip from a dog bite 18years ago would a filler help with the appearance? I would love to cover it atleast w/makeup but since its indented makeup just makes it stand out more. Please help I need advice asap!!
There are many options for indented scars such as the one shown in the photo. Surgical revision followed by Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing would be an ideal treatment protocol in my own practice in Santa Monica. I would also recommend pre and post treatment with Melaquin AM and Melaquin PM to enhance the results of the scar revision of the lips.
I have two red pea sized bumps on each leg resembling a fresh bug bite. I am being told that they are bug bite scars. They appeared there after a trip to the field at Fort Hood, Texas three years ago. If true, I want to know what type of bug caused them as I never felt anything until I noticed the bumps and how they can be removed.
Dark scar on the leg is likely a dermatofibroma and is common in women who shave their legs. Approximately one third of all women get these lesions. You would be better off leaving the dermatofibroma alone as the scar from removal will likely not be an improvement.
I have scars on my upper arms caused by keratosis pilaris and/or acne. They are several dark brown spots. What is the best scar removal method to remove these scars/spots?
Keratosis pilaris is a common skin condition characterized by reddish bumps on the back of the arms, or thighs. The condition cannot be cured, but treatments are available. I treat patients with a laser and topical products, including SkinKare KP Pads. Good luck with the treatment for keratosis pilaris or KP.
