DOSING: Apply a thin layer to scar(s) 1-2 times a day.
PENTOXIFYLLINE: Pentoxifylline lowers the amount of collagen (a type of protein) created by the body. Collagen helps scars form. Studies show that it can reduce the redness of scars and give skin a more uniform and textured look. This medication is also used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis, acne, rosacea, and other forms of dermatitis.
TRIAMCINOLINE ACETONIDE: Using triamcinolone acetonide for scars is a great option for patients looking to treat scars, or reduce the appearance of scarring from acne and surgery. Triamcinolone acetonide is a prescription strength steroid cream that is often used by doctors to treat severe itching and inflammation triggered by skin conditions like eczema. But for many patients, it can also be used to treat scars left over from surgical procedures or other scarring issues.
It reduces inflammation and helps the skin heal faster. It is considered a corticosteroid, which means it suppresses the body’s immune system. When this occurs, it becomes less likely that your body will react as severely to allergens and irritants, allowing your skin to heal more quickly.
