Is there a particular technique for massaging scars in order to improve it? I've read that massaging it speeds up the healing and helps fade it more quickly. I've been using biocornium for about four days and I've been massaging it for a few minutes twice a day when I apply it? How much pressure should I be using to massage? Also is it ok to use aquaphor on top of the biocornium? I've doing that in order to prevent dryness but I'm not sure if it's necessary or even counterproductive. Thanks!
