Good-morning everyone !

What's the best oil/cream you guys have bought to use to prevent scarring from your incisions ? I hear Biotin oil is good, and recommendations?

Thanks as always

I'm definitely interested in this. I had my surgery Wednesday, and my belly looks like a war zone!

You can also try Vitamin E gel capsules. Snip the capsule and squeeze the oil out and apply it to healed scars. It's a bit early.

You can also get little bottles of Vitamin E Oil - I got some and have been using it on a scar on my forehead from a small lipoma that I had removed a couple months ago. It's been really helping a lot. I got it at Target Pharmacy next to the Capsules.

Wait for it to heal - I had gallbladder surgery last year and it was a total war zone, but you can only see 1 now (and you have to look fairly hard). Can't day for this surgery as I'm only 15 days out and still have some steristrips but hopefully they'll fade down to almost nothing.
