Chances are we have the answer to your skin care question. cystic acne scarQuestion I had an acne cyst on my chest that has just recently burst. I am left with a round, white indent that I fear might turn into a pitted acne scar. In the mean time, the wound is still raw (only a couple days old). Is there a way I can prevent scarring? Please help! Answer There are things you can do to help prevent it, but it doesn't always work. Sometimes the damage has been done to the deeper layers of the skin, known as the dermis and topical products alone will not treat the dermis area. If the scar is located in the upper area, the epidermis then it's possible to treat it. I suggest you consider Merz Mederma and Sonya Dakar Seaweed Liposome Gel - Scarring. Please contact me if you have any further questions. Best skin care wishes.
