Is there a particular cream that I could apply on my scars to help reduce their appearance during the healing process?

There are several creams available that can help reduce the appearance of scars during the healing process, such as Dermatix and vitamin E-based creams. It is important to use a fragrance-free moisturizing cream regularly, like Glaxal Base or Aveeno, and to avoid using harsh soaps or taking hot showers. Be gentle with your skin, and apply moisturizer immediately after showering. It may take several weeks to months for a scar to fully heal, so be patient and consistent with your skincare routine. If you have deep scar tissue, consider getting massages from a physiotherapist once the area has healed to improve skin elasticity. Additionally, remember to apply sunscreen regularly, especially if you're going to be in the sun for an extended period.
