    I’ve seen a few girls mentioning that they have been using gels or strips to help their scars heal, what product should I be using and when do I start using it?

    Also I have my surgery in 11 days and need to make sure I have absolutely everything I will need!! So far I have the following (this may help others too):

    Roll on deodorant, dressing gown and slippers, macom bra and m&s extra high impact zip up bra, constipation tablets lol, loads of painkillers (paracetamol and ibuprofen), wipes, money for cab to get home from surgery!, protein bars in case I don’t feel like eating a big meal, femfresh wipes lol, palmers co co butter stretch mark moisturiser (should I start using it now???), v pillow…… any other suggestions ladies?

    Thanks xx

    hi @lauren thanks for replying – I had read of a few girls saying they couldn’t go to the toilet after their surgery because of the all tablets etc they have been taking so thought I would be prepared haha! I will check with a nurse on the day of my surgery about scar gel as I’ve already had my pre-op, I have also got bio oil too! x

    Think drinking water really helps to soften and flush you out
