Had upper arm lift. What type of oil or cream can I use to help with the scarring?

Arm lift scars tend to become raised and red for several months to almost years after the procedure. I have my patients apply skin colored paper tape to their scars for several months over the length of the arm scar. The tape blends well with most skin types. At 6 weeks, I begin fractional laser treatments to the scars every 6 weeks for 3-4 sessions. If the scars are red, I use a different wavelength laser to fade the red color. It is important to be patient with arm lift scars because they take up to 2 years to look their best.

Thank you for your question. We recommend Biocorneum for scarring. It is the only FDA cleared topical silicone scar treatment on the market.
