There is a product called Mederma (?spelling) you can buy over the counter. Vitamin E oil is suppose to help too.

I'm just about 4 weeks out and three of them have already faded to a white line. My incisions were glued so I couldn't treat them at first. Once the glue walked off all I did was dab on some olive oil. I also use coconut oil (food grade) on all my skin after my shower to keep it soft.

I had reconstructive plastic surgery on my face after surgery for skin cancer a couple years ago and my surgeon recommended "Scar Away". Worked really well as you can't see the scar on my face so I have been using it on my sleeve scars (sleeved 11/3/16) along with some Vitamin E.
