Hiya..does anyone have a good scar removal cream they can recommend? Ive heard BIOSKINCARE CREAM is good, but I cant seem to find anywhere to buy it in the UK. I have tried BioOil, but was wondering if there is anything better?

Thanks

I wonder if it is really possible to remove scars with any sort of cream. Got a couple of op scars that I would like gone but Ive found nothing yet.

Not sure about creams and suppose it depends where the scar is but you can get special plasters which have something in them which is good for removing/ lessening scars.

My DD had a nasty fall when she was three and had to have stitches in her chin. We used the plasters for about 6 months after (at night when she was in bed) and you can hardly see anything now.

I have also heard that if it's a new scar, vitamin E oil is very good for helping them fade quickly.

Mine are mainly scars on my face... BioOil does seem to be working, been using it for about 6 months and they are starting to fade, its just slow.. maybe try that Bonne.

Plaster isnt really any good thanks smartie.
