What is the best remedy for chicken pox scars?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Cosmetic surgery: Just like with real estate, it's all about location, location, location. Site of scarring determines intervention choice. Fractional laser, medium depth chemical peel, punch excision, or focal filler injection may be used, but the body site and scar appearance are critical to modality choice.

Skin resurfacing: Individual patients/scars vary so therapy must be situation specific. Laser resurfacing, dermabrasion, surgical excisions are the usual methods for dealing with these scars. Perfect results from any of these therapies are rare.
