bio oil on scars????

does anyone know how soon you can apply to scars? ive been using bio oil on my boobs since day one, im 11 days post op now and my scars have healed really well so since yesterday iv been rubbing it into my scars as well! just read on an old post that you shouldnt apply anything to your scars for 6wks so im panicking now! xx

Hey, my surgeon (not with MYA) has told me I can start rubbing bio oil or cocoa butter into the incisions from this week, which will be about 2.5 weeks PO. As long as the incisions have been dry and closed so aren’t bleeding or weeping it should be ok. It might be worth ringing your nurse to see what they advise which might put your mind at rest more, as it seems to be something that different surgeons have different opinions on. x

thanks for that hun i know its early days but my incisions have healed brilliantly and are fully closed so should be ok! i’ll ring nurse to double check anyway xx
