Update (inflamed scar)

[Giideon45]

I made a post about 5 months ago. At that time I had an inflammation in the scar. What time later it turned out to be keloids. I have used a cream prescribed by another doctor to help combat keloids. I have been using it for almost 3 months and I feel a great improvement from what it was before. The cream by if anyone asks, is called Contractubex.

It's nice to hear your scar is better now.

Clinical study with this product. There is no compare group not using it?

Try to keep scar moisturized at least first 3-6 months is way to go. Time is a healer.

I haven't got any keloid scar, but I have used a silicone scar sheet to maintain moisture on area..

[babyblue1 in reply to S2BC]

Are silicon scar sheets sticky and painful to remove?

Your other photo looks different. Is the bottom the same? Any update

[Giideon45 in reply to Larry459]

The inflammation was in the right part of the scar. Now almost everything has been reduced

[Jack1985]

How does the bottom look now. Still swollen? Update please

Curious as well

[Giideon45 in reply to Jack1985]

It is a little inflamed. But it is barely noticeable. Even that area is tough compared to the other parts of the scar.

Hi Gideon. I have started using contactubex for a similar problem. How long did it take before you noticed an improvement? Did you apply it three times per day?

[Giideon45 in reply to Hidden]

I used it 2 or 3 times a day. I started to notice improvements from the second month. If you have a hypertrophic scar or keloid it will help you a lot.

Thank you

Does that gel really work better than anything else? I'm massaging my scar with coconut oil but haven't seen much improvement.

[Giideon45 in reply to CuriousQ]

The gel has worked perfectly for me. On the other hand, coconut oil used to inflame my scar even more and I did not notice improvements. The gel was recommended to me by a doctor, to help decrease the keloids that I had on my scar

Hi are you still using the contractubex gel? Or you just used it for 3 months. I am buying one to see of it will help the bumps & keloids from my post circumcision of 1 month ago. Thanks man
