How Can Chicken Pox Scars On The Face Be Removed?
My daughter had chicken pox before 7 months. Still she has dents with red colour on her forehead and face she is just 15 years old. I m wondering how long it would take to be back to normal. We did taken medicine during chicken pox and even today she is applying tube on affected area to get rid of red dents. It is very painful for a mom to see daughter crying

Hi,
I had gone through your question I can understand your concern. You need to visit a dermatologist for the proper evaluation and treatment of scars. Mostly the scars disappear in six months, dents may take little more time.
During mean time she can take vitamin a and vitamin E supplements. Dermatologist consultation is must, I think she may need steriod treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
