scar removing cream - #21281

Rudra

I am really struggling with this scar on my forearm. It’s a long story, but I had an accident while cooking a few months ago, and the burn left this really ugly mark. I’ve been looking into different options and scar removing creams seem to be all the rage right now. But, honestly, I'm kinda overwhelmed and don't know what to trust. I tried one that my friend swore by, but I didn’t see much difference. I’ve read that scar removing cream can really help fade scars, but does any of them actually work? I don’t want to waste more money on stuff that’s just a hype. My doctor had mentioned something about silicone gels too, which apparently are good for scars, but would a scar removing cream work better than that? I just feel a little lost and frustrated—I want this scar gone, especially since summer is coming and I don’t wanna feel self-conscious. If anybody here has tried different scar removing creams, what really worked for you? Like, what should I be looking for in a product? Any personal recommendations would be super helpful! Thanks!
