Hypopigmented depressed scar on penis 1 year after podofilox - can this be corrected? (photos)

Question

Can this one year old hypopigmented scar be treated in anyway to restore skin color ?

Nelson Lee Novick, MD · Answer

You would be wise to consult a board certified cosmetic dermatologist to discuss the use of a manual Dermastamp microneedling (no need for the additional expense and risks of RF microneedling) accompanied by the application of prescription topical pigment enhancers, such as tyrosine and lanatoprost. Hope this helps. B'hatzlacha.

In this case, it's important to speak with a medical professional who can properly evaluate and diagnose the condition. There may be treatments available to improve its appearance, such as topical creams or injections.

It's important to note that any procedure involving the penis carries some risk, and it's crucial to only seek treatment from a qualified and experienced medical professional. It's recommended to schedule a consultation with a dermatologist or plastic surgeon who specializes in scar revision to discuss your options for treatment. They can evaluate your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate course of action to achieve the best possible outcome.

Best of luck !
