Hi

So, this dermatix, how soon after the op can you use it and for how long should you use it ?

Would the gel sheets or just the gel be better or both ?

How many gel sheets would I need ?

Sorry for all the Q's but only just read some posts on scars, and had no idea you should massage them (thanks for that post FunkyGirl !! Scar treatment 184153

) or that you could put stuff on them to promote healing !! Scar treatment 923101

Thanks !

I'm not sure about dermatix but I would be interested in finding out from people who have used it.... flipping expensive though!

Anyone...?

derma what ??? Scar treatment 557141

I used heal gel on my scars (only once they were fully healed), it was £30 for a little pot but I've still got about half of it left as I don't use it as regularly now as I prob should.

Ok, just googled it!

I only chose to use a specialist scar gel because I have extra scars around my areolas.

I think if I'd just had the incision sites I wouldn't have bothered and would have just used bio oil which is what I used on the boobs themselves.

eastla- I wouldn't get the sheets hun, I think it's best to let the air get at your scars to help dry them out properly and heal. If you do get anything just get the gel but make sure the scars are completely healed (check with SH at your 6 week check up) before you put anything on them.

These products are designed for people with lots of scarring/ issues with keloid scars/ facial scars etc so don't get sucked in just because you're going to have 2 tiny scars (and SH does very neat scars Scar treatment 184153
