Lotty - my hysterectomy scar is still a reddish colour from 13 years ago but my thyroid scar from 4 years ago is barely noticable but I do use the Prolegene Gel on it.
I have just inspected the scar I have right across my pelvis (don't ask!) and one end is still reddish purple and the other is skin tone. I wish I hadn't looked - 'tis not a pretty sight!!
lofty...I never leave the hotel, which has a direct walkway from Term 1. Full English, cus "she" is not watching, meet my mates for an update on who's sh@gging"whom and who has been found out and left his wife. All good fun.
Thanks for the advice everyone! I eneded up using a silicone gel sheet just large enough to cover the area, 12 hours a day, it's almost completely gone! The trick is to use it as soon as the wound heals and keep it up for the next several weeks.
