Topiramate may be a safe and effective treatment for scars. Shapira et al. reported an open label study on ten adult subjects with discolored or raised scars at least 2 years old who were given topiramate in an oral dosage of 15 mg per day for 1 month. The dosage was then increased to 30 mg per day if there was minimal or no improvement. Based on that study, BDC Research Centre treated 91 patients with various scarring conditions including post acne, varicella, dermatitis scars, melasma, hypertrophic scars, and keloids. Excellent to good results were observed in post-acne and post-varicella scars.
