Dermatologist,  's  Response
hello..thanks for the query
The treatment options vary according to the nature /extent/depth/site of the scar you have on face.So this is best advised by the dermatologist seeing you.
In general, amongst the other methods of scar remodeling ,a few good ones are :
1) Chemical peels
2) Fractional laser
Usually a combination of several methods work.For the colored scars , peels also help lighten the tone.
However,it is good to remember that scars cannot be made to disappear completely.
Hope this helps.
