Bufflehead 6,358 Posted September 20, 2015 Honestly, nothing. I didn't experience any swelling and a year after surgery I had no visible scars. My dermatologist had to take out her lighted magnifying glass to find them. I certainly can't see them. So my recommendation is to save some money and stay away from magical lotions and potions that claim to prevent scars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted September 20, 2015 I use Palmer's cocoa oil or Palmer's cocoa butter. I happen to love the feel and the smell! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLERDgirl 6,417 Posted September 20, 2015 I tend to keloid. I use Scarfade gel to help flatten them. I know just use virgin coconut oil which I use the just about everything! I use it on my hair, my face and cooking as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
