Awesome ! Thank you ! I'll check that out

you can get it at drug stores, too - but I found it cheaper at Walmart (in the pharmacy section)

Awesome ! I live by a Walmart so I'll be looking for it this weekend ! I appreciate it

Mederma, vitamin E oil (right out of the pill), aloe vera gel from the plant and old fashioned coco butter has worked for my previous scars and Bio-oil.

Palmers oil

I used Bio Oil on my scars for six months post-op
