Hey all,
Since having my surgery in November my scars have remained very red and raised, without any real noticeable fading or improvement.
Having googled this I now think I have hypertrophic scarring, which is not quite as bad as keloid scarring, but will remain prominent for sometime.
I just wondered if anyone else has had this, or know of anything to improve the appearance of the scars.
I am using bio-oil and also a silicone based gel daily, with little effect. I've even resorted to trying to cover them with concealer but they are far too red & raised for that to have any effect.
