Hi. There are loads of things you can do to help! Vitamin e oil is fantastic for scars - apply to the area morning and night and massage firmly. Aloe vera juice taken internally will also help as it promotes the renewal of tissues. Aromatherapy oils mixed in with your vitamin e oil, and used in the bath will also help - best to visit a qualified aromatherapist for face to face advice. Reflexology would be great for the internal scarring to release the tightness of the developing scar tissue.
Hope this helps!
