Chicken Pox Parks

I got chicken pox when i was 5 and now i'm 17. I have a noticeable mark on my face. i've had it for a really long time as you can tell. Is there any creams that would make the mark go away?. Anything would be just fine. I'm real desperate here.

Hello,
Chicken pox are very tough to treat especially if they are old. Application of vitamin E on the scars helps and it should go away in a few days to months. If it still persists then you can go in for laser treatment, photodermabrasion or microdermabrasion.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
