Are my scars normal for 8 weeks post op? (Photo)

Asked By:Lilypad101 in Toronto, ON

I switched from massaging my scars with bio oil to just using silicon sheets now . The bio oil was causing my scars to be red so my plastic surgeon told me to switch to silicon sheets ... however .. my scars still seem really deep and raised ! Is this normal for 8 weeks post op? Anything else I can do to help the scars fade and look better ? Should I use the bio oil in conjunction with the silicon sheets ?
