Does cordran tape (flurandrenolide) flatten hypertrophic scars? i am looking to reduce the appearance of a scar from tattoo removal.

No good treatment: Really the best option would be to find yourself a very skilled and gentile doctor and scrape the area flat. Now hopefully your skin heals well and does not d keloid. But you never really know. Here you need the art of medicine
