I got this scar between my eyebrows when I was 4. It's super noticeable since it's white and textured and depressed. I've tried laser treatments and microneedling but nothing seems to drastically change the appearance. What should I do?
Answer: Hidef Protocols for Scar Revision Keloid scars are characterized by their growth potential and increased degree of inflammation within the skin. Unlike non-inflamed scars, keloids have the potential for growth beyond the original footprint of injury. Our office specializes in the management of keloids, whether single or multiple, using a combination platform that includes lasers, RF, scar modulation, Parke-Davis Scar Protocols, and injection therapy. Some keloids will require surgical intervention as an initial step for treatment.

Answer: Fractional or ablative laser resurfacing If you have had lighter laser treatments with little result, you should see a scar expert who can consider using an Erbium:YAG or CO2 ablative laser to resurface the whole glabellar cosmetic unit to give you a better result. Following this with bimatoprost drops, RECELL and phototherapy may repigment the area also. Best wishes, Shobhan.
