Thank you for the close up photo of your chicken pox scar over your forehead.
This is a depressed box-scar type of scar that is moderately deep.
The key to successful treatment of the scar is to combine several effective treatments to target the scar from all angles.
The best treatments to remove chicken pox scars in Singapore include:
1. Lasers
- to stimulate collagen remodelling
- Fractional CO2 lasers (treats up to 1.5mm deep scars)
- Fractional RF with Microneedling devices like INFINI RF (treats up to 3.5mm deep scars)
2. Deep Chemical Peels
- to remodel collagen at the base of the scar
- e.g TCA Cross
3. Subcision + Filler
- Subcision frees the tethered scars
- Filler acts as a buffer to prevent the scars from reforming.
Speak to a doctor who focuses on treating scars for best results.
Hope that this helps!
Warmest regards,
Dr Justin Boey
