Hi Everyone
Finished Radiotherapy 3wks ago and underarm scar quite red and tender, has anyone tried Siderm Scar Gel to help healing and flatten the scar, 2nd scar also tender but not as red.
Thank You
Yes - I’ve been using Silderm, but on scars following surgery - I’ve been putting it on twice a day, it’s a nice thicker texture than bio oil, you just apply a thin layer and let it dry. I’ve not had radiotherapy yet, but I’ve been really impressed with it - my scars aren’t red at all. Hope this helps x
Hi
I have used bio oil GEL - this I have found to be exceptionally good. (I have other scars as well as my BC one, due to a road accident and this has been better than anything the hospital has ever recommended).
Best Wishes, Lesley
