"Arnica and bio-oil"
Posted by claired19 12 October  at  23:29

hi
i am a scientist (geneticist and not a dermatologist) but from my experience arnica is a MUST - I used it and had absolutely no bruising. I would only use Bio oil after about 5/6 weeks; don't touch scar tissue in the early healing.
I have absolutely no scar tissue.
Take arnica from day 1, and gently rub in bio oil from week 6. Never use any perfumes/ perfumed soaps/ moisturisers/ tanning creams on scars.
the best thing to do in the early days is keep the scars clean and don't touch. At about 5 weeks, start to use oil to get circulation back. repeat.
hope this helps - honest, my friends can't get over the fact that i have no scars...
Genetcist with a boob job!

arnica 6c tablets in a small purple tube/dispenser, ask at counter if you can't find as it is quite a small thing.

me to take Arnica tablets (30c) a week before the op and continue to take them. It helps with the bruising, not sure if if it brings the bruising out quicker to help with the healing process or stops the bruising altogether. Thanks for the info about the bio-oil, I wasn't sure whether to bother getting any or not. One thing I will be doing is using a coco butter lotion or pregnancy balm on my chest a couple of weeks before the op as I reckon it will help stop any stretch marks and give my skin more elasticity. I used it all the time when I was pregnant and never got any stretch marks. x
