Hi, this looks pretty deep. Sorry, prescriotions cannot be given on this platform. You need to see a qualified dermatologist near you in person for prescription. After the wound heals, a different cream needs to be used for resolution of the marks. Hope this helps. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, Therapeia SkinHair and ENT centre, Bengaluru
