The scars from the incisions on the lower eyelids are still quite prominent after almost 6 months now. Is there a product or treatment I can apply to reduce or eliminate them. I hear there are scar creams and such but I'm not sure how effective they really are for incisions like this.

Answer: Removing Scar From Eyelid Surgery Keep your follow up appointments with your surgeon. Your surgeon can best guide you as to what topical or laser therapy would be most appropriate to improve the appearance of the scar. Topicals containing Vitamin A, Silicone or Vitamin E may help along with sun avoidance, but you should have the area evaluated by your surgeon first.

Answer: Eyelid surgery :improving scars Revision SurgeryScar creams such as BioCornium can help. Revision eyelid surgery should be done at least 6 months after the initial surgery to allow time for healing and tissues to soften. Asymmetries, excess skin, fat rolls, fat malposition can all be improved. Other treatments may include laser or chemical peels to tighten skin and improve texture

Answer: Scar removal At 6 months after your surgery, your scars should not be as visible as they were in the early stages of your recovery. They should be well on their way to becoming faint and thin, as mature scars normally appear. If your scars are still very prominent, I suggest you see your surgeon to have them checked out. A nonsurgical treatment can help, or you may require scar revision (which would be rare).
