Yes, there are various scar creams available that can help reduce the appearance of scars, including the one from your wrist surgery. Scar creams like Mederma Advanced Scar Gel, Derma E Scar gel, and silicone-based products can help soften, hydrate, and fade scars over time. Additionally, using a moisturizer and protecting the scar from sun damage are crucial for optimal healing and scar appearance

Question

I've been dealing with this issue for quite some time, where my lips need Vaseline almost every 15 minutes. If I skip applying it, my lips get dry, sore, and really irritating. It's starting to affect my daily life and I'm not sure if a doctor could offer any help for this. Is it just me or is there something I can do to fix it?

Question

I've been using Clindac A face wash for my grade 1 acne for almost 3 months now, but I'm still getting some breakouts. I'm supposed to finish this treatment by November 5th. Should I keep using it, or is it time to try something new? And if I should switch, do you have any recommendations for a good face wash that could help?
