Someone will probably come along to tell you this needs to be in the daily help thread, but to answer your question: silicone scar gel with vit c will help prevent scar hypertrophy and the vit c ester helps fade it.
So happy for you! Dermatix Ultra helped a lot during my last lap. I found a link for Amazon here
I bought it from my usual pharmacy that can be found in my country. Not sure where you are but you could probably get it there. You can only put it on after you take the stitches out me thinks. Best to check with your doc.
Rest well!
It's mostly time that will fade them. However, my doctor said that a silicone scar gel like Dermatix will help the scar to become less red/purple and less raised as much as possible. I have always used it on my scars and I think it's helped. I haven't been impressed with the results of Bio Oil - it can help scars to be a little less tight/painful by keeping them moisturised, but it hasn't lead to any visual improvement for me.
However, rest assured that they will eventually fade and become less noticeable. I have a 9 inch scar down my arm that used to be dark purple and attract all kinds of comments. Now, four years later, it's all white and nobody even notices it half the time.
