Scar on neck after biopsy

2020-08-01 18:44:29
I was diagnosed with TB lymph node on my neck few years ago. I am cured now but a deep scar is still visible. It has faded over years but its still visible. Can I use benzoyl peroxide cream to peel the skin and make it less visible ? If not what are the treatments that I can take this remove the scar on the neck.

Hello! This scar won’t improve with benzoyl peroxide application but can be treated with co2 laser or similar procedures. Please reach out to me here or at my clinic for more details on this.

Correction  by plastic surgery  is the  solution.  No amount  of  superficial  treatment  will be  effective
