  • I thought it was called Cira-care or something similar but I can't find it on Google.

    I got it on precription for a scar on my neck after surgery but it was in a hard place to keep it on so it didn't really work for me :( Its kind of a jelly that you cut down to size and keep on the scar, easier said than done in some areas though!

    Would bio-oil or similar aromatherapy mix not work out cheaper? I tried the plasters and it didn't work too well on my scar but an aromatherapy mix I bought from holland and Barratt did.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    Found it ! It was called dermatix. The chemist told me it was expensive to buy but I got it on prescription and needed to use it for nearly 6 months but it worked a treat. No point buying if you can get it on prescription cheaper.
