>>20152NTA but it's been less than a year so you will still get some fading and using a silicone strip will help expedite it. They can also work somewhat on ancient scars but better within the first year which thankfully you still are. Keep it super moisturized and put sunscreen on it this summer even if you don't use it on your body to avoid the scar developing hyperpigmentation. If you can avoid that this summer that would be a massive help to avoiding it being noticable in the future. If you can find vitamin e oil (or gel capsules you can burst) then rub that on it too. Bio oil also has a vitamin e oil with other ingredients to help but it might not be available in your area. If it is 100% recommend.
If you have prescription insurance (and acne or skin issues) try and snag a prescription for Arazlo. I got it for my acne and realised it helps all scarring really crazy well like acne scars and places I've picked. Even years old scars fade and burn marks especially disappear altogether somehow. I think it's a retinol/vitamin a? Either way I super recommend it if you can get it. Especially if you are prone to hyperpigmentation around your scars. I had some words I wrote in my thigh and it's mostly gone, I got out of the habit of applying it so they haven't totally gone but I can confirm the scars don't reappear when you stop the cream. Any fading that happens is permanent
