White Scars from Laser Burn - Fort Lauderdale, FL

after the laser procedure my legs actually had some blisters and scabbing from the burns. Looked life fish scales.. then after overdosing on neosporin, the scabs went away (after about a month!)...which then left me with the white circles where my pigment was literally "burned away". You should really try to get desonida .1% There's no info about it online for some reason, and its not sold in the US as a cream, probably bc they are trying to sell the more expensive supposed "miracle" creams for hypopigmentation that don't really work. Who knows, but all I know is that just using this cream a month, my scars have blended in way more... if you'ld like i can send you pics

I am currently using a cream called Desonida .1% It is really really working miracles with my white scars, as they are noticeably blending in. I don't think you can get the cream in the U.S. (its available most other places...not expensive at all) I was referred to it by a well known dermatologist in colombia and its the only thing that seems to work for white pigmenting. you apply the cream ONLY to the white areas and a thin payer 2 to 3 times a day.

Thank you. You're very helpful. I know this is awful, having the circles all over the legs looking like fish scales... I live in Florida and avoiding the sun requires wearing long pants in over 90 degree humid weather. About three weeks after my procedure i went on a trip where i was fully exposed to the sun. The physician who did the treatment told me the sun would make the white circles go away and insisted i receive sun. BAD IDEA. The spots DID NOT go away, and what I have heard is that this sun exposure could have actually caused permanent damage. I heard of a "miracle" cream (from a very highly recommended dermatologist) called Desonida. Heard that helps for hypopigmentation... any ideas or suggestions?
