Hypersensitive scar ,will bio oil help

[Catscat]

?!?! Help . Will it work

I don’t know but I’ve had incredible results using silicon strips on my CS scar. It was getting very bumpy on one half, had no sensation for an inch high above the whole thing and hypersensitivity below it. The strips are sticky and you increase how long you have them on by the day then leave them on 24/7. It’s faded, I’ve got feeling back and lost the soreness, the bumpy bit is much smoother. I looked into a bunch of different scar things and didn’t want to have to touch my scar putting anything on it too often as it made me feel a bit sick for a while.

My surgeon recommended Kelo coat. It was amazing and people often don’t notice the scar on my face until I point it out. It seems expensive at first, but you only use the tiniest amount.

It’s actually kelo cote (not coat)

Where did you get the strips from ?
I was told after my surgery I would be numb in the area as nerve endings were cut but most 2 years later I have all the feeling back and it's horrible.
I terrified I've got internal scar tissue and I don't want another surgery.

They didn’t “remove my scar” but it started out angry, red and feeling as I described above and it now feels completely normal and is fading to my normal skin colour in places now. I had my CS in March and started using them about 4 months later, stopped a couple of months ago. I had one left and gave it to a friend who’s got a leg scar from a bike injury and he said it’s facing his well.

Kelocote and silicon strips are fantastic for improving the appearance and texture of scars, but for a hypersensitive scar what you need to do is massage it, touch it, and desensitise your brain to how it feels. Touch a normal bit of skin, then the scar and think about how it feels difference. Stroke normal then scar with things like cotton wool, flannels, tooth brush, fabric and again think about it.
Its a long process, and not pleasant, but it does work as where the nerves were cut they will be sending back funny information, and your brain needs to ignore that and reintegrate that area in its view of normal.

I went through a lot of this therapy after a nerve injury and developing a chronic pain issue due to that. I also have some nasty scars in that area due to surgery, one of which became a keloid
