  • I have some Bio-Oil I'm going to try using after the glue from my incisions come off. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My dermatologist gave me biocorneum cream for my incisions. My scars flattened out about a week or so of use and now I'm just watching for them to fade. Sometimes I place a silicone scar away sheet on top of the biocorneum to hold it all in place.

I'm using bio oil mixed with mother's special blend oil. It works much better than just bio oil alone in my opinion

Almost 2 months out, not one of my inions is still visible without me pointing it out, and I seriously view that one, as my tattoo, I love it! I know it sounds trivial but embrace your body and love it, not saying don't use whatever product, but if you can view any scar from this as a victory, good for you

I just kept them clean and used both antibacterial soap and soap with aloe.

I suppose they are visible if one looks really really carefully, however, everything has shrunk in the area where the scars are.

I should add that if mine aren't totally vanished by 6 months pre-op I'll have them lasered off.
