When my daughter was just 2 years old, she caught chicken pox from the nursery. There were a lot of scars after but I was advised these would clear up in a few weeks. They have never cleared up - some have faded and are no longer noticable, but there is still significant scarring all across her front, back and sides, and on her thighs.
She is always embarrased to show any part of her belly because of the scars. she's now 6 years old and I worry that she will develop permanent anxiety issues. recently, at a dance performance with her dance class, one outfit showed the midriff. we had to clip the skirt and top together at the front and I had to explain the situation to the dance teacher. and during the performance my daughter spent every second glancing down to make sure her belly wasn't showing.
Who do i contact to see about options for removing scar tissue from a 6 year old girl?? just don't know where to turn. been to the doctor for her excema and when they see the scars they just ask what it is and then move on to look at the excema. they don't seem to have much idea either.
