Silicone Scar Reduction Strips
I've been reading up on silicone scar reduction treatments. Some (like Dermatix) you can apperently get on prescription but my GP advised I purchase Bio-Oil and even break open oral Vitamin E capsules onto my scar every day.
I am still interested in trying the silicone treatment though because I have heard so much about it.
I was looking on eBay for Dermatix and Cica-Care which are said to be the market-leaders in this type of treatment.
However, during my search I stumbled across a seller in the US that is selling the same sort of stuff from a different manufacturer at a fraction of the cost so I have ordered some. The listing is at:
2 Sealed SIL--K Pure Silicone Sheeting Scar management on eBay, also, Scar Stretch Mark Reducers, Bath Body, Health Beauty (end time 21-Dec-08 04:13:10 GMT)
The gel strips are meant to be much more effective on raised scars than the gel applied from a tube so it must be worth a shot.
Will let you all know how it goes.
