Eczema scar treatment
Posted: 05-07-08 07:02am

I've had this all my life. I have scars and discoloration of the skin. My skin is very fair. 001 light and the discoloration is a few tones darker. Since i have a green undertone my discoloration is greenish fade. It looks like i got some dirt on me or i rubbed against something dirty. I also have it near my mouth from a rash i had there as a kid. foundation semi covers it but this doesnt really bother me as much as the back of my neck.


Its red.. red like a horrible sun burn. apparently i used steroids there and it ate my skin. when i went to the derm they said its not thinned out and the color will come back. they recommended "clobetasol propionate .05%" and well the color never came back. i am currently using "desoximetasone .25%" on my body. It works well. but as for my neck.. will the color ever come back? or at least not be red anymore?

i think my derm was a well not very good.


btw is there anything i can do about the discoloration for the rest of my body?
