Yesterday I went to see the nurse about my scars as I have been very angry that they are not little and have not gone away in fact they look awful and I got surgery August 2012. Anyways she told me to buy a silicone patch. It was a little expensive but you cut what you need and it acts like a second skin and you shower and do everything until it falls off. You do this for 6 months and scar will at least not be red and will be flatter. You can goggle it and perhaps find it cheaper.
Not sure if that has already been addressed here but I just wish I knew about it sooner and maybe the scar would be gone completely.
