Hi. Greetings. Pox scars like the one you have showed in the snap may not fully respond or improve with creams alone. However you could try a retinoid cream and glycolic acid cream alternatingly with prescription from a dermatologist after being evaluated by him. You will ideally require procedures like punch elevation/ fractional laser for improvement of ulcer. Warm regards. Dr Govind S Mittal.
