I have a small chicken pox scar beneath my eyebrow from when I was a toddler. I want to diminish the appearance of it through scar revision, but I can't find information anywhere on the internet regarding the best procedure for this. Would laser help? Or microneedling? Or would I have to have surgery?
I will be doing subcision or excision for chickenpox scars on the forehead. I have read that microneedling after may be an option. What would the downtime be on these procedures. Also, how many sessions of microneedling would I need to see results?
Very interested in microneedling on my face neck and chest. Chest is worse problem area as it has a combination of acne and chicken pox scars. As I am a black woman I was wondering which would be the most effective at eliminating my dark marks? Photo for reference
Hello, I had an excision done to remove a chicken pox scar about 9 months ago. However, I think my stitches opened so my scar didnt heal properly. I went to a skin specialist and she suggested that I do micro needling to minimize the scar. I dont want to re-excise my scar, I think it would be pointless to go under the knife for something so small. Would it be safe to do micro needling on an excision or do any of you think it would make the scar worse?
I have 6 tiny ice pick chicken pox scars on my forehead. Went to 3 docs, suggested 2 methods. 1) Punch excision 2) Micro needling. Doc told me that- punch excision is just exchanging round scar with a line scar. Micro needling with PRP sounds reasonable, but price is around $2500 for 4 times procedures. Is micro needling is a permanent treatment ? interesting thing I found was derma roller, which can be bought $20 in internet same function as micro needling. Any suggestions?
I have some scars due to chicken pox. I had many treatments of microneedling & I have started seeing good results but I have one big scar on my forehead that have turned redish on the edges but in the middle it actually has the same color of the skin. What I wanted to know is that normal and is that color going to go or not?
