What sort of creams are effective for old scars? by chicken pox
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: It is doubtful that creams will eradicate scarring, regardless of the source. Consultation with a plastic surgeon may be of value and provide several potential avenues by which to deal with this. Good luck.
