Question 1

if i tried lipozap, would i have bumpy scars under the skin?

Accepted Answer

Lipozap: This product or service can be extremely expensive, and frankly speaking, phosphatidylserine has no actual proven weight loss ingredients. This means that lipozap would just be a waste of time in its proven benefits. It is used in medical spas, and it has not really been proven to do much of anything.

Question 2

burnt myself with a curling iron on my knee, got a bumpy scar that might have fluid in it?

Accepted Answer

Curling iron burn: Timing is important. If the burn happened within the past 24 hours you may have a second degree partial thickness thermal injury as evidenced by the blister. Generally leave this alone but once it ruptures you will want to keep it clean. If this is an old burn injury then you may be developing hypertrophic (thick scar).

Question 3

what's to be done about bumpy acne scars?

Accepted Answer

Can only Improve: You cannot "erase" scars.  Poor scars can be improved through the following methods:

1) scar massage
2) silicone sheeting (a kind of silicone tape you where over the scar)
3) steroid injections
4) laser treatment (helps remove coloring)
5) scar revision (removing the scar and starting over).


Consult with a plastic surgeon to find out which combination of these would best work for you.

Question 5

i had gb surgery 2 weeks ago and now my incision scars are bumpy and one of them hurts. its not red or inflamed. what could be the cause?

Accepted Answer

Pretty normal: Your trochar sites are sites of trauma. Your eighteen so you have a dynamite immune system. You are feeling soreness due to inflammation as these wounds continue to heal. The bump is due to scarring and , probably, just a little bit of blood at the wound sites. Take aspirin/naproxen/ibuprofen for soreness, and you can use a heating pad as well. This will pass. Good luck.
