Hello, Asunscreen depends on the type of skin whether oily or dry. A sunscreen with SPF 35 and above must be applied three times a day. I use Faceguard suncreen. Chicken pox scar are broad and there are various treatment options. Like dermaabrasion, microneedling, subscision, punch elevation, Fat grafting etc. A photograph will help guide you better. Consult through Lybrate for more information.
