General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear
I understand your concern
Scar healing take long time and it will get lighten in the 6-8 months.
Continue your rosehip, contractubex and kligmans cream.
But I advise you to apply
Hexilac silicone gel: apply 2 time days with gentle massage.
You can also apply silicone sheet.
Pressure garments is useful
Apply epigen mosturizer cream
Current report suggests silicone application is the standard and effective treatment for scar lightening.
Take above treatment for 6-7 months.
If not resolves then you can go for laser treatment and chemical peeling process.
Hope this may help you
