Using Biocorneum scar cream, looking for alternatives

. . .  in that patients (especially in the summer) can get more sun than they think through thinner clothes (and non-UV-protected bathing suits), even "under there". Probably won't be as necessary after several months/when fall arrives, and most scarring is determined by genetics/"tincture of time" anyway. Hope this helps!

There is no one best therapy for scars. Silicone sheets, Mederma, and Biocorneum are reasonable and popular options.Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

I agree with you that I love BioCorneum over other scar gels partly because of its sunscreen coverage, but in an area not exposed to the sun, you can either simply use paper tape or silicone gel. Paper tape is cheap but can sometimes irritate the skin. The silicone scar gel I recommend to my patients is the ScarAway 100% silicone gel or sheet.
