Hi


You have many pigmented scars over the face.
Topical medications can definitely be of help to you in reducing the pigmentation to some extent, although only after proper treatment, we can know the results.
I would surely not recommend the use of panderm since it is a combination of various agents with steroids and long term application of steroids over the face can lead to various side effects.

Since these are dark scars, I would advice that you should use a lightening agent like kojic acid and vitamin c combination over the scars.
This is a simple, harmless lightening agent which can be used for as long the blackish pigmentation is there..
Also ,try not to touch the area too much
Use proper sunscreen (spf>26) before going out in the sun so that the lesion doesn't darken any further
Take a diet rich in vitamin C and antioxidants like Citrus fruits and lots of salads
If after all the above measures, the scars tend to persist, then I would advise that you should see a dermatologist as there are various other measures for the treatment of pigmented scars like the use of chemical peels, dermabrasion etc which a dermatologist can decide according to the type of scars.

Hope it helps
Wishing you speedy recovery
