surface scars

i am mourning the loss of my sternum and was wondeirng folks advice on surface scarring/how to help it heal up a bit.

most folk i have spoke to suggest vit E oil or bio oil (whats the difference?)
&how long should i leave it before using anything, for the week after i took it out i just doused it with saline to make sure it was cleanish while the holes closed.

this post is terribly written but i hope yous get the point.

any help appreicated !

Re: surface scars

once all the scabbing has gone you can start to try and heal them.

bio oil has extra things in it, fuck knows what they are though. (and i think it's probably a bit more expensive)

your scars should fade to white themselves over the next couple of years anyway, this will just help the process.

if i remember i'll try and get a picture of my flatmates sternum scars. they've been out for about a year now.

Re: surface scars

i swear by vit e oil. i used it when i got a big (well not that big) mingy prolapsey thing after i got my nose pierced and theres no scar at all. i just bought capsules and cut them open and popped the oil on 2 or 3 times a day.
