One of our hystersisters has remarked about a product called Mederma. It's fairly expensive, but she was pleased with the results. Perhaps you could ask your pharmacist about it.

I used Calendula creme daily for a few monthes(you can get it at the health food store)a couple years ago on a 5 inch knee scar and you can barely see it -- it never got that funny translucent color to it - several drs. have commented on how great it looked- it was $9.40 for a 4 oz jar (i just bought a jar the other day for my new scar!)

Therapeutic grade pure Essential Oil of Lavender is a godsend when it comes to fading scars. Lavender oil can be used without a carrier oil and not only can it help with scarring it can help in the healing process too. Apply a few drops to the scar twice daily and in a very short time you will see a real difference. By the way, it is also great to keep in the kitchen in case you burn yourself, put straight onto a burn it numbs the pain and facilitates really quick healing. You can buy Lavender at an aromatherapy shop or health food store or many places on-line. Make sure to buy "PURE" essential oil of lavender, not one blended with a carrier oil.

PS a few drops of lavender oil on a tissue slipped into your pillow case at night can really help sleep too.

When I had my right ovarie and tub removed in 96 I used St.Ives vitemine E cream. The one in the little tub because it's more consintrated. got it at the drugstore for a couple of dollars. Use it daily. My scare is not bad at all.
Hope this was helpfull.

Wow, I'll have to try some of this stuff. My doctor prescribed Retin A for me to apply to my scars. I did so for about 8 weeks, and it really helped my scars heal. However, I had to stop using it because it started causing a rash on the healthy skin around the scar.

The original use for Retin A is for people who get scars on their face from bad acne problems. But, it works great on all kinds of scars as I have found out...

Best Wishes,

I'm using vitamin E straight from the capsule.
