Can Ringworm Scar?

Hey all, I rescued a kitten in May and about 1.5 weeks later we discovered she had ringworm. The first “flare ups” caused huge bald spots on the back of her head and her ears. We have gotten rid of it, all her fur has grown back in all spots except the initial 3 that I mentioned before. The skin has healed and the fur around the rings grew back but the actual spots are don’t have fur. Are these scars?

Not sure if it left scars. My cat had ringworm last year but her fur grew back fully after about 2 months. How long has it been?

It’s been a little over two months.

In humans, it can take 3 to 6 months for hair to grow back after ringworm. However, if you are concerned or suspect another condition or outbreak, check with your vet.
