Can Cefoxim 500 treat facial scars caused by bacterial infections?

Asked by Female, 39 · 3 months ago

Cefoxim 500 can help treat the bacterial infection, but it cannot remove existing facial scars. Scars need separate treatments like creams, retinoids, chemical peels, or dermatology procedures once the infection has healed.
