I want remove the tribal marks on my face. What is the best procedure to do this? (Photos)

Question

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Tribal marks are difficult to smoothe out. A combination of topical treatments, laser, and IIT can help improve your scars. A knowledgeable scar revision expert should be chosen. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Thomas P. Sterry, MD · Answer

This is going to be a multiple step process.  I suggest you begin by having a board certified plastic surgeon evaluate you for primary scar revision.  There may be a roll for W-plasty in this area.  Silicone gel will help you develop a fair scar.  A few months later, after that scar heals I would consider dermabrasion or non-ablative fractional laser therapy.Good Luck!
