Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Scar will disappear or not it depends upon the degree of burns by garlic lotion.
Silver sulfadiazine + clotrimazole for local application for few days will improve the condition and once heal , stop these drugs.
Now use gycolite lotion as an OTC product.
Vitamin C tablet 1-1 for at least 5-6 month will remove all scar marks.
You have to avoid greasy , spicy , junk food .
Good luck, Dr. HET
