Does The Tiny Wart On The Face Leaves A Scar After Cautery?
I had a tiny wart on my face, next to my nose. It was lightly white in color,very small. Hardly noticeable,but with makeup,toy could see that part wasn t flat n perfect. I was told you use aldara,but opted for cautery. It s been almost 3 days. I ve been using fucidin and haven t washed my face. Will it leave a scar- am paranoid about that. I don t think it was burnt too deep

hi there.
1. don't worry, there won't be a scar after the session until unless done by a inexperienced doctor or deep cauterization.
2. still you can use opexa gel twice daily on affected areas.
3. have vit C rich diet like citrus fruits.
this will help you in scar modulation and better healing.
