Hi, I'm glad your surgery went well. Have you been told to start using Bio Oil now? I'm interested, as I was always told to wait till all the scars settle down before using the oil. Keeping tape on your scars, like micropore works really well at reducing scars, as it will hold all the edges together and prevent pulling. I kept tape on mine for many months, and they are nice and thin, though still red. I will start with the bio oil after I have finished using the silicone tape that my plastic surgeon recommended.
