Removal for Dark Scars Left by Folliculitis?

September 12, 2009
Asked By:cbs8484 in 63301

I am a 25-year-old Asian male who has been diagnosed with folliculitis on my neck. I do not shave my neck, but get large pimple-like bumps that will leave me with dark scars. I will have 5-12 at different times on both sides. I have been given several oral antibiotics, steroid creams, and tried laser treatment. Nothing has helped. I am very self-conscious of this. Was I misdiagnosed? Will the scars fade? What else could be done?
