Hello has anyone got any advice on how to deal with the scars left by the vasculitus rash or will they disappear in time?

Some people recommend Bio-Oil as being very good.. :-)

Yes you could try 'Bio-oil', I never have, not that I have too many scars; mainly round my neck.....from surgery.(Parathiriod(that's not spelt right)-ectomy). Time also fades scar tissue, depends where, and how bad, the scares are.

Good luck anyway

I had severe multiforma erythema ( rash caused by vasculitis ) and was prescribed a steroid cream by the dermatologist . It helped but even after two tubes of it I remember that I was still left with some marks . It was really just time that helped most of it to fade away.

hello, i've had vasc. 7 years now and no scars from the rash only bruises, except for my biopsy scar and a few from where i picked blistery parts of the rash and have found bio oil to be brilliant for those areas.

if they're bringing you down i went to the doctors and they prescribed me 'cover mark' which is skin tone strong waterproof makeup for cover up, it works amazing, here's the site,

it's slightly expensive but it works great and you don't need much of it. live saver for me.
