I've had this awkwardly postioned scar for over 15 years now and was wondering if this would be something juverderm can fix temporarily?
Answer: JUVÉDERM® is not likely the best option for your scar treatment. While JUVÉDERM® can very nicely fill in facial lines and wrinkles, it may not be the best option to smooth away your scar. First of all, it’s a temporary solution, so in order to maintain any results that you do get, you’ll need to continue getting injections. Secondly, JUVÉDERM® is a hyaluronic acid-based filler that works by binding water to the skin. This could create a swollen or plumped appearance that you’re not necessarily looking for. Instead, you might consider laser skin resurfacing treatments to help minimize the appearance of your scar. I would suggest consulting an experienced cosmetic surgeon for a more in-depth analysis of your particular scar and needs.

Answer: Multiple Options For Scar Your chicken pox scar can be treated in a variety of ways. These include subcision, microneedling, laser, and filler. Filler would be a reasonable, albeit temporary solution but due to the superficial nature of your scar I would select a thinner filler such as Belotero, Volbella, or Restylane Silk. Injection of this location also needs to be performed with extreme caution due to its highly vascular nature. Definitely a discussion that needs to be had with a board certified specialist in cosmetic procedures.

Answer: Subcision Plus A Lifting Filler Can Work Well For A Chicken Pox Scar The short answer to your question is that Juvederm in my opinion would not be a good choice for treating your glabella chicken pox scar for two reasons. For one, Juvederm is not an ideal lifting filler. Better choices would be Restylane Lyft, which I would opt for in my Upper East Side Manhattan practice, or Hyaluronica 2, which would be my go-to for this in my Israel satellite facility, where a far greater number of regulatory agency approved fillers are available. More importantly, no filler by itself. is likely to be able to adequately lift a heavily tethered down chicken pox scar. More likely the filler would spread to the peripheryof the scar, and in fact a donut like effect may result in which the periphery of the scar would project even more than before, in effect accentuating the central depression of the pox scar. In order to avoid this, subcision lifting can be performed to break up the tethering scar collagen below responsible for pulling the scar downward. This alone may be used to elevate the base of the scar, but in conjunction with the fillers mentioned above is more likely to result in a more acceptable cosmetic improvement. Make sure to seek consultation and treatment from a board certified aesthetic physician. Best of luck.

Answer: Would JVD injections help chicken pox scars? Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. If you would prefer to try subcision and filler placement I would advise a thinner filler, such as Volbella. The material may last for up to a year and with other modalities such as chemical peels you should see nice improvement. Best wishes.

Answer: Combination Treatment for Scars - Subcision+Bellafill+RF Microneedling I wouldn't suggest using Juvederm for the scar, as it won't last very long and has a high affinity to water and may cause more swelling. Bellafill is a much better alternative as it was developed to treat acne scarring and the results may last up to five years. You can have a punch excision, which would cut out the deep scar and instead leave you with a linear scar from the stitches. Or you can have a subcision followed by Bellafill and RF micro-needling such as Intensif, which delivers energy through the needles to heat and break up the underlying scar tissue as well as promote collagen production. I'd suggest you see a licensed dermatologist to discuss your treatment options for the best and safest outcome.
