Permanent damage to eyebrow after threading. Is there anything I can do to get new flat skin in this area? I stopped 1yr ago.

Question

I saw my regular doctor and he said it's dermatitis and had a rash reaction to the threading or the lotion they apply after the threading is done. He prescribed a cream called Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream USP 0.1% I have been on it 2x a day for a month and it hasn't shown improvement. All of these blemishes are from about 5 times of threading my eyebrows.

This can be improved with a combination of lasers, microneedling/prp and skin care. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

PRP therapy is a treatment that promotes cell regeneration and healing factors. It can be used on the scalp as a hair loss treatment or on the face as a facial to reduce wrinkles, scars, and other skin imperfections. PRP therapy may be beneficial for your skin damage around the eyebrows. Because it promotes cell turnover and heals the skin for the inside out, it may be more effective than a topical treatment such as the one you've been using. You should meet with a doctor who specializes in PRP for facial rejuvenation and find out if you're a candidate for the treatment

The treatment that your doctor recommended is appropriate for a dermatitis. Sometimes the 'blemishes' may take up to a year to disappear. It you don't like the opinion you gor, see another dermatologist
