Products to reduce scar

[ZAZ]

Guys,

 

Are there any products out there that have been proven to reduce scars created by a strip HT?

[Maxxy]

Hey Zaz,

 

Retin-A has been proven to reduce or atleast reduce the appearance of scars and wrinkles, also some people swear it actually helps regrow hair.

 

I have not read about it being used on a donor scar but don't see why it couldn't be.

I would ask your doctor or at least a doctor what is best before experimenting.

I always used Mederma and natural Vit E oil while taking a shot of AlaVera juice during my procedures. This really reduce any raising or scaring as well sped up the healing.

Its been 4 yrs since last HT, so might be something new.

Ask your doctor and call local costmetic surgeon for suggestions.

Graphcyte is good for speeding up healing of the grafts at recp. site and last procedure I Also used this on my strip incesion with Mederma.

if it is an old scar, products are not likely to be too beneficial. You may need to consider trichphytic scar revision. Fresh dermatologic surgery scars can be treated with ALdara, silicone, mederma, plain aquaphor ointment for moisturiztion, pulse dye laser treatments, although this would not be too advisable near hair follicles. My experience is good surgical technique helps reduce the need for topical treatments.
