Is it ok if i use 2 different scar product? mederma at day time and silicone sheet(or maybe contractubex) at night? my scar is very new from surgery
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Silicone best: Absolutely. Silicone gel products work much better than mederma in my opinion and are just as easy to use. If you can't use the silicone sheets 24/7 then use a silicone gel product during the day and silicone sheets at night.
