Chicken pox scars

honestly, i do not think emu oil will do anything. you will probably need a combination of CROSS TCA and/or silicone micro injections.
best,

I had also chicken pox once and my scars fade with the passage of time and now my skin is clear. I think you should also mention when you had chicken pox and how long these scars are on your face.
