Cider Vingear Burn/scar

Postby Nameless » Fri Jun 22, 2012 11:57 am

Hi,

A few months ago (9 months approximately) I used Cider Vingear to remoe a mole which was part success as some of it has gone. However it left a pretty bad burn. Stupidly I left it for a while and after a 2 weeks i realised I needed to put something on it.I have now been using aloe vera for a few months and its worked but the burn won't completely go and my skin colour currently is redish/brown.

Can anyone advise me what cream I should use or what i can do to completely heal the burnt skin?

thanks in advance
Nameless

unfortunately, this may be permanent and may require a formal excision. however, if it is just hyperpigmented, then you could use a bleaching cream. my product (sorry to hawk something but i really believe in it) ova-skin.com is one of the best bleaching products out there even better than hydroquinone but won't most likely fade it entirely. or you could use a laser to manage any redness or darkening but sometimes that can worsen it. if it does not fade after a year total, you might elect to just have it cut out and risk the scar.
