Hello I am getting. A Third injection of 5fu to a scar which has honestly made progress from the injections as well as two micro needling sessions. I am wondering after I get my 5fu injection, would it be beneficial to use silicone tape again for awhile? Or is it too late being 1 year to mess around with the tape? Wondering if the compression could be helpful after the injection?
