Title: What topical solution to buy for accidental head shaving scar.
Post by: TheBaldAndBeautiful on April 17, 2010, 02:33:17 PM

It was a year ago when I just start shaving my head.  Didn't know I should moisturize the head first.  Well, something happened.  I cut some of the skin off and it left a medium white spot only seen in really to low light.  It shaded a little now, but I want to know what to do with the remainder of it.  What types of topical solutions you suggest to blend in or erase scars for the dome?

Neosporin or similar would be something you could use for fresh scars or bruising but if this happened like a year ago then this may be too stubborn and pitted in now. An AHA lotion 10% is something alot of acne sufferers use for deeps marks and can be used for mild scarring. There are lot of varieties available if you google it.

See what Vitamin E oil or lotion can do for you.

Mederma is great, but don't know at this point whether it will have an impact given the elapsed time.
