This prоduct has done a miraculous job in minimizing the scar I have after surgery. I highly recommend this crеam for all scars, old and new.

Only silicone is scientifically proven to reduce scars. It was first used on burn victims, and subsequently studied.

I tried scar gels, but felt like they rubbed off as soon as I got dressed. They're also expensive for a tiny tube. I ended up using Mepitac silicone tape from Amazon. It's nice because it can stay on for a week, even with showers.

If you try Bio Oil, test out a spot first. I had a terrible allergic reaction, which I learned of after I slathered on all my scars. I'm not a very allergic person, but my reaction to Bío Oil was severe.
