Title: Dermarolling a burn scar
Post by: Cbrant on May 12, 2012, 10:36:45 AM

I have a burn scar on my arm and was wondering if I would benefit from dermarolling.  Im not sure if it is a keloid?

I looked at the photo you emailed me. It is not a keloid. Buy a 1.5 mm dermastamp and follow this:

Your burn scar appears to be hyperpigmented. Buy our 0.1 % Tretinoin cream and apply it on the scar every day or every second day if the scar is too irritated by it.  

 

Do not use Tretinoin if pregnant or breastfeeding.

     

  Use the 1.5 mm dermastamp also on your acne scars that you mentioned.
