I'm an avowed pure cocoa butter fan.

tea tree oil will help speed healing and reduce the scar that you will end up with. You should be able to find some at Walmart but I get mine from a specialized company.

I'm using Mederma...not sure how great it is, but giving it the ole College try!

MEDERMA ® Skin Care for SCARS ™

---Toni

My sis in law used this after her gallbladder surgery, and she says it worked very well. My neice uses it on her scrapped up knees she gets from skateboarding and baseball. Lol. Oh the joys of a tomboy! Haha

I've been using coco butter, but switched to Mederma 2 days ago at a friends recommendation. She has absolutely beautiful skin, and says she uses Mederma whenever she gets a scrape or something.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
