This skin blemish may be due to injuries and accidents. Sometimes, they may appear on the face and neck. You may need to also look for other skin treatments aside from targeting the scar alone.
Skin Clinic Options
Almost all skin and derma clinics offer this treatment service. If you prefer to have the procedure done in a hospital, the service is also available depending on the doctor’s accessibility. You may also consult your personal dermatologist to know more about your options.
Surgeries that involve cosmetics and beauty procedures may not be covered by any types of insurance. Most of the time, surgeries on the skin due to severe injuries can be applied with health insurance but this is for reconstructive purposes only.
Do not expect Philhealth to cover the procedures related to cosmetics. This one will not be useful as well. As we inquired from a derma clinic, you can only avail promo packages and discounts.
Note that the process may not be totally and 100% effective. This is due to the variations in skin conditions and certain factors such as age and health. Ask your doctor what to expect after the treatment.
For Kids
Kids have sensitive skin. One should consult a dermatologist first before using any products that promise to remove or eliminate scars. Never use products without a doctor’s prescription or recommendation.
