Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have facial scars . I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examnation . Doctor will recommend chemical peeling for facial scars . Moreover flotivate is a corticosteroid cream , which has some side effects but if your doctor recommended you this cream then your should go for this strictly accordingly to prescription . .

Thanks
