Depressed/Indented scars on the forehead. Any suggestions? (photos)

jalil4478Aug 27, 2015
Hello, I just had a motorbike accident and of course a new small scar on my face (forehead/see pictures). Knowing that I have 4 scars in total (upper face), I would like to do smthing about that. They are all depressed/indented , and the last one looks like a wrinkle, I read many articles on the net and I still don’t know what is the best solution in my case: "Fill in" this scar? Make it smooth with laser/peeling? Any suggestion on the method to follow is welcome. Many thanks, JB

Atrophic scars respond well to Ematrix, subcision, microneedling, and fractional laser. These are the top treatments for indented scars on the face. Best, DR. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

You may require a combination protocol that includes fractional laser, subcision, scar excision, FUE, and microneedling. Begin with application of Plato's Scar Serum. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Keloids on the chest are often more amenable to non-surgical scar revision rather than surgical scar revision. Options include lasers and IIT> Best, DR. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
