Scar lotion / cream?
I had an emergency c-section 6 weeks ago. GP checked this week and said everything has healed nicely, but didn't tell me much about how to take care of the scar.
Any recommendations about good lotions to massage the scar with, so it looks better? Or any tips on how to take care of it?

Things like scar erase patches and massage minimise the appearance pretty well but the best thing is honestly just time. I didn’t use anything after my first section and by 12m it vanished into the thinnest white line I had to hunt for.
I’ve heard good things about the naydaya scar saviour. I plan to get some for at home scar massage once I’ve healed afterwards. I’m due my 3rd mid May and I definitely want to take care of my scar more and still baffles me how no one tells you anything afterwards.
Pharmacist recommended massaging the area with Bio oil and I’ve seen improvement, I’m 16 weeks pp

I can't recommend a cream but here are a couple other suggestions that I did and 15 months pp my scar is almost completely faded. Silicone patches perfect for protection and hydration. Helps the appearance of the scar. C section scar massage m, I swear this is the best thing I did! I started at 8 weeks but you can start sooner. Research the techniques and benefits.
