Best thing for scars?

[CammyC 291]

Hey y’all,

What did you use for your scars to decrease their appearance and help them heal more? I used scar away for a scar on my cheek in the past but it hasn’t been the best thing. I definitely don’t want noticeable scars when I’m finally able to wear a bikini in a few months!

I used Mederma. My scars were small and now they are almost invisible.

I used mederma also worked great

Thanks guys! I’ll check out Mederma. My scars are little too but I want to minimize them even more.

I really didn't have any after bariatric surgery - but I had a lot of plastic surgery (still do...). I used ScarAway (a silicone gel)

I'm using Mederma Advanced Scar Gel, it worked in the past. Also, good old fashioned Aloe Vera Gel fresh out of the plant is a great healer. I'm going to use that after I'm finished with the Mederma.

The scars will mostly disappear over time - the scars I had from my first surgery are pretty invisible but I think if I got a tan they would probably show up. I’ve only ever used Vitamin E cream on my scars as it’s the only thing I can get with any regularity here in Japan.

I haven't used anything on mine yet and they have really faded. The only one that is really noticeable is the one in my belly button, it is still really red. In the past I used Mederma also.

The only thing I used on my scars was BioOil. I wasn't concerned with scars. I figured they would pale in comparison with my stretch marks, but I did want the skin as supple as possible and BioOil does that for me. I still use it...All Over!

But, if you ARE concerned with scars, I occasionally work with burn patients and we recommend silicone sheets or strips for their burns. Here's a link on Amazon, but any brand will do: Aroamas Professional Silicone Scar Sheets

BioOil is amazing as well, I like the way it makes my skin feel and the hydration it provides.
