Used derma ceutic yellow cream on scar on my brown skin. scabbed over. scar is bigger! is there hope scar could go away by itself or with treatment?

Yes: Your scar will shrink and lighten with time. Some people use mederma or silicon strips to treat scars. You could also ask a dermatologist for advice. Vitamin E oil rubbed on it may help. Of course, best health habits of adequate sleep, good nutrition, exercise, relaxation all will help. If the scar is on your face, you may want to see plastic surgery as well. Do you keloid?
