Used Dermaglue For Emergency Carotid Artery Surgery. How To Fade Scar?

I just had emergency carotid artery surgery and my surgeon used dermaglue on the outside so my scar is really not that bad but it is a 3 inch scar down the front of my neck. The pharmacist at Walmartthe told me that what ever I used to help make my scar less noticible needed to have hyderosomething as one of the ingredients. I don t think it was hudrocortisone because it was a word I was not familar with - can you help me with this. Or can you recommend a cream that is effective. .
