Asked By:mynameisjerry in Vancouver, BC

My doctor who did the surgery suggested I use a silicone based scar removal on my bumps I am wondering if that would actually fix anything or is he making excuses and it is untreatable?

Answer: It is very difficult to fix a bad hair transplant, cobble stoning, or scarring. Scar removing gels will not likely help.
