Having for told my mastectomy wound is healing well and I can start using creams, oils etc I was just wondering what everyone uses and recommends please?
I'm a great fan of bio oil and have used it on previous ( non BC) surgery scars with good effect. It's not cheap but you don't need much so it goes a long way
Hi VWgirl, I’m using bio oil too and I think it’s making a huge difference. I’ll need to change to cream soon due to upcoming radiotherapy on the reconstruction, but I’ll still stick with the bio oil on my tummy and belly button scars. Hope that helps - Mickey x
I was also told this last week so have been looking around. I felt the need to spend more money on it than I probably need to (over compensating?) and I have purchased this https://www.amazon.co.uk/Science-Skin-5060429300001-Solution-Scars/dp/B07DNHP516?th=1. It is probably over priced snake oil but its on its way. I post here when I've tried it.
Hi, I was told four weeks, but you must not use on any areas that aren’t totally healed, so I had to avoid a part of my tummy scar for a while. Mickey xx
