I was shocked when my hairdresser pointed out scars around my left ear. You never see this part of your face yourself. Will they improve with time. Is there anything I can do like massage? Are there any treatments eg microneedling?

Answer: Medical Tattooing for Flat and White Scars Thank you for your question and pictures. It appears your scar have widened and whitened. There is not really any scar cream which will help, they are more for raised scars. Medical Tattooing would be a good option for the scar to blend more. Alternatively, you can leave them, if you have never noticed them, I am sure other people haven't. It would only be your hairdresser which would be looking closely in this area. All The Best

Answer: Hypo pigmented scar options. Your incision have a widened and whitened scar. They look flat. with this type of scar there really isn’t much you yourself can do. Scar massage and scar creams will not improve. Additionally steroid injections or lasers will not either as those are reserved for raised scars. Your options are: 1. leaving it alone off it doesn’t bother you too much and most people will probably not notice. 2. Medical tattoo to color match the skin. 3. Scar revision where the white portion is Excised. Speak with you’re surgeon about your concerns.
