I seem to be allergic to Biocorneum for scar healing. I get red itchy bumps. What are other good options? Silicone sheets?

I had breast augmentation in February. 3 weeks post op I started Biocorneum. The longer I use it the redder, itchier, and bumpier the incision areas get. I have VERY sensitive skin. What are my other options? Do silicone scar sheets do anything? If so, which ones are good?
