Asked By:angifrance in New York, NY

I have deep scarring from hydrenious supperativia on my buttox. For years I didn't know what it was and finally got diagnosed with HS. Doctor prescribed some ointments to prevent further breakouts but nothing to lighten the scars or discoloration that is already there. Help?
