How To Remove Scars From Chicken Pox?
Question: My sister suffered from Chicken Pox few months back, now the scars are visible on here body. Need advice on how to remove those marks.
Brief Answer:
Chicken pox scars fade over time
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome here,
Chicken pox scars fade over time and may minimize by one year or even more. If it occurs in childhood or younger age, then it is easier to recover from scars.
After many months also if there is significant issue then laser treatment or fillers in the scars can help. You may check with a local dermatologist about these options.
