What to use to remove scars after bunions surgery?

Question

6 weeks after surgery I started to use Bio oil for the scars. It has been 3 months now and still looks bad. Am I using the right one? Any recommendation?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

There is no cure for scars but it can be improved with fractional laser combined with VBeam/pulsed dye laser.  I suggest a silicone based product such as ScarMD or Biocorneum topically and a vitamin A cream.  You should see a cosmetic dermatologist with experience to evaluate and treat the scar.  The sooner you treat the better the long term outcome.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

You have a wide scar on the foot and this can be improved with a combination regimen that includes PDL, application of Plato's Scar Serum, fractional CO2 laser, dermapenning, and sublative fractional RF. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
