Scar on Nose

My 10 year old daughter has a small chicken-pox-like scar on her nose. A dog jumped up on her and scratched her 6 months ago. Is there any way to get rid of the scar?

Hello,
Although there are many products available in the market to tackle this scar but at such a young age, it is advisable not to use any of these. Instead try applying vitamin E or almond oil on the scar. You can also use skin creams containing vit C or K,alpha hydroxyl acids and kinetin.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
