My scar is 5mths now, hope its not too late!
I don't really mind but will like to flatten it at least, it is really raised and red still.
As for buying, you can buy it in Mannings and also the chinese pharmacy - apparently it should be cheaper there
cheers

I had a c section 3 weeks ago, and when the stitches came out after 7 days, my obs gave me a couple of cica care strips. I have also been wearing a binder around my tummy. obs said this helps to stop the scar from stretching, which is what causes keloids. I have to wear the binder for another week. Up till now, the scar is just a thin red line. I hope it stays that way! or even fades more!
