I used bio oil. Worked well for me. Some people love the silicon scar tapes too.

i used aeno scar cream from retail manufacture store, it is rish on different pure oіls (cocоnut, jojоba, оlive etc). You can see results before/after below. 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.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
