ingrown hair scars

for anyone that has had to deal with a long problem of ingrown hairs, has anyone had to deal with ingrown hair scars? I think I have a few and I'm wondering if there's anything on the market that helps get rid of them and/or reduce their appearances.

I'm not sure if you can get in the USA but I think bio oil could help?

As Dipesh said Bio Oil or Fade out cream.

thanks. I'll have to check it out

If you're getting them bad enough that they are scarring, I'd do a quick visit with a Derm for suggestions. I had some keloid scarring starting to appear at the base of my neck. A few visits to the derm, some back and forth discussions and trial and error on my own, and my bumps have been minimal for over a year now with the scars almost completely cleared.

I did finally save up the money for some laser treatments on the scalp. My derm said it should only take a couple of sessions to alleviate the folliculitis issues I've had for years.

There's nothing you can really do short of fraxel laser or CO2 treatments which ain't cheap:

I used to have a very bad habit of digging ingrowns out, whether they were close to the surface or very deep. a few months back, I dug out one that was pretty deep and I still have what I believe is a small scar from the carnage.

I had better luck when I started just letting them be. Twice a day I wash GENTLY (use fingertips, not palms, and don't dig in too much) with Neutrogena Liquid soap, PAT dry (don't rub, and be gentle) with a fresh, unused towel, apply Tend Skin using cotton balls as directed, then follow with Nivea Creme moisturizer.

Doing that consistently has given me the most improvement, and I haven't needed any antibiotics or anything for over a year. It takes a few weeks to start seeing results, and things can still flare up from time to time, but it's the best routine I've found for me.
