Hi

Thanks for posting your query.

1) Most of the times, these scar XXXXXXX will go by time and as such no therapy is required. Time for resolution vary among different people.

2) You can use Kumkumadi Lepan cream (an ayurvedic cream) for reducing scar XXXXXXX This cream contains saffron, sandal wood powder, turmeric.

3) You can also use Hydroquinone ointments mixed with "gulab jal" (in 50-50 ratio) twice in a day for quicker relief.

Thanks & Hope for early recovery.

Please write back for follow up queries that you may have.
