Help can using cortizone (hydrocortisone) 10 for eczema help with the scars?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: If by scars you mean darkened areas of skin where previous outbreaks of eczema occurred, the yes, but if there is thickening, keloid, or other more hard and linear scarring these may need laser treatments or other treatment.
