I've been taking treatment for 2 months now, with 2 sittings so far, and I'm using Kaishor Guggul and Malatyadi Ghrit. But I want to know how I'll be able to tell if this treatment is working.
You have mentioned that you are seeing clear result??
So if you are observing visible results then continue with the same treatment
N along with that you can use kumkumadi taila just 1 to 2 drop gentle massage locally to be done

Additional Treatments to Speed Up Healing
A. Ayurvedic Oils (for daily massage after Agnikarma or separately):
Jatyadi Taila or Kumkumadi Taila – Promote scar healing and improve skin texture.
Mahanarayan Taila – Useful for stiffness, especially over joints.
Application: Warm slightly and massage gently over the scar for 5–10 minutes daily.
B. Scar Tissue Massage (Post-Healing Phase)
After Agnikarma wounds heal, scar massage breaks up tight collagen.
Use circular and side-to-side motion with oils.
Helps soften and flatten raised scars.

You can continue the AGNIKARMA, it will give you result , which varies in person to person
Meanwhile after Agnikarma procedure and daily you can apply
1.Mahatikthakam lepam ointment before bath ,do gentle massage
2.Kumkumadi taila 2drops over the area and do gentle massage, leave it for a night

Apply jatyadi oil twice daily on your scar, will help in healing
Mahamanjistadi ghanvati 1-0-1 after food with water

HELLO HIMANSHU,
Hypertrophic scars can be persistent and difficult to treat
SCAR LOCATION- foot
SYMPTOMS- tight skin, hypertrophic scar
CURRENT THERPAY- agnikarma-therapeutic cautery
No chronic illness
AYURVEDIC VIEW
SCARS= dushta vrana(chronic wound) with shotha(inflammation) and Granthi like vriddhi(nodular overgrowth)
-mainly caused by pitta-raita vitiation and kapha involvement(leading to fibrosis/thickening)
TREATMENT AIMS TO
-remove dushti-toxicity
-enhance romana-healing
-balance tridosha and promotes rakta suddhi
INTERNALLY TAKE
1)GUGGULU TIKTA GHRITA- potent internal medicine for your case
-15 ml daily before meals with warm water
-Combines the deep detox of tikta(bitter) herbs with guggulu
-heals chronic skin conditions, shrinks scar overgrowth by resolving Ama and Granthi
-works especially well where Malyatyadi ghrita fails
2)MAHAMANJISTHADI KASHAYA + GANDHAK RASAYANA COMBO
-mahamanjisthadi kashaya- 40 ml twice daily
-gandhak rasayana- 500mg with warm water twice daily after food
-manjistha purifies blood tissue and clears pigmentation and inflammation
-gandhak rasayana is sulphur based , highly rejuvinatize for chronic skin/scar tissue and enhances skin tone, reduces stiffness
3)KANCHANAR GUGGULU- 2 tabs twice a day with warm water
-breaks down granthi(hard fibrous tissue)
-clears kapha+meda+mamsa dushti causing tissue overgrowth
4)RAKTAMOKSANA
-particularly good for scars with redness, inflammation, or itching
-clears vitiated rakta and pitta, reducing hardness and improving texture
-methods- leech therapy or prachnna at clinic
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS
1)KUMKUMADI TAILA+MANJISTHA CHURNA PASTE
-mix 5 drops of kumkumadi taila+ 1 tsp manjistha powder + rose water
-apply to scar daily for 20 minutes , then wash
kumkumadi regenerates cells and removes hyperpigmentation
manjistha is a natural blood purifier and scar fading drug
2)TAMRA BHASMA+SHATDHAUTA GHRITA
-very potent for fibrous/keloid type scar
-antifibrotic, antibacterial , enhances micro circulation
LOCAL PROCEDURES YOU CAN GO FOR IF AGNI KARMA ISN'T ENOUGH WORKING
1)KSHARA KARMA- application of alkaline paste like apamarga kshara
-destroys excess tissue in hypertrophi/keloid scars
-more effective than agnikarma in fibrous, raised scars
THINGS TO AVOID
-avoid trauma, friction, or over scratching the scar
-avoid oily, spicy, or junk food
-avoid exposure to direct heat or cold on the scar
-GENTLE MASSAGE with warm oil daily
-turmeric milk at night with pinch of black pepper drink
-yoga to improve blood circulation
TIMELINE TO SEE RESULTS
INTERNALMEDICATIONS- onset of visible effects= 2-3 weeks, full effect= 3 months
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS- onset of visible effects= 10-15 days,, full effect- 2-3 months
AGNIKARMA/KSHARA KARMA- onset of visible effects= 2-4 sessions, full effects= 6-8 weeks
CAUTION
-Do not apply raw turmeric , garlic, or harsh scrubs- they worsens scars
-dont abruptly stop agnikarma
OPTIONAL MODERN SUPPPORT
-SILICON GEL SHEETS OR ONION EXTRACT GELS- for scar flattening
-FRACTIONAL LASER/MICRONEEDLING
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU
DR. MAITRI ACHARYA
