Circumcision scar

Which cream will reduce scar of circumcision?

[Itzallgood1]

I've never found anything that would reduce the scar. Docs just say watch for infection. If you find anything let me know.

There is no magic cream to get a scar to disappear. However it is suggested to apply moisturiser and rub the incision site, when it is healed enough for next 3-6 months post-op at least. You can use any fragrance free natural oil, mineral oil or emollient cream.

Silicone scar sheets and ceramides have some scientific study for them.

I am at 5 weeks post OP, still got 3 stitches left, should I apply coconut oil on incision?

[S2BC in reply to Satyajit1997]

If there is no open wound anymore, you can apply coconut oil to your incision site and penis head.

What about stitches, my doc said it will go there own, how long should I wait?

[Skertchly in reply to Satyajit1997]

Took me 4 months to recover from sore stitches probably because I have pacemaker and insulin dependent diabetes. Will eventually heal and be shorter.

Coconut oil or Bio oil. I’m using coconut oil. It takes a while but I see my scar getting lighter and fading

Its completely normal to have scar in adult circumcisions. In many cases post surgery a dark thin ring of circumcision scar gets formed around the shaft along incision line. If the color of inner skin is lighter then it would result in two tone shaft.

The scars mostly subside over the years (slow process) and does not causes any issue.

To make the bumpy scars go away you can apply some vit e rich oil regularly and massage along the incision line.
