    Scar Treatment
    Hi,

    I have a scar on my nose due to glass cut and its very visible.

    I used dermatix cream but was not effective.

    Please advice me that is there any cream that can help me to reduce the scar visibility or
    I will have to go for laser treatment.

    Best Regards
    Vicky

    Cocoa butter is good for scars.

    But I've found glycolic acid or lactic acid helped more. They help renew the skin therefore making the scar look less visible.
    You can buy creams or lotions that contain glycolic or lactic acid. There are also peels too!

    Once you start using glycolic or lactic acid, you will need to use SPF, at least factor 15 during the day as your skin will be sensitive.

    Hope this helps!
