any ideas for healing scaring apart from bio oil which isn't working DS1 has two scars on his face that aren't fading and it's been nearly a year the annoying thing is he didn't scratch or anything but when we were dressing and undressing him the scabs would lift causing sacring.
Anyway anyone know ways to reduce the exisitng scars? there is one just under his eye which is the worse.

the thing about calamine lotion is a bit tricky...

when i went to the chemist they said the reason they dont recommend other lotions is that it is applying them that is the problem. its when you start touching the spots that you can irritate them and make matters worse. and then you touch one, then the other one and another...

our girls got them within 2 weeks of each other and the older one did better not scratching etc but the wee one couldn't help herself. We left them alone and just maintained constant vigil..now the younger one has 2 scars on her face from the pox - on her nose and just above her eyebrow..the older one has one by her ear...it's not nice and I'm not looking forward to my wee one and the next one getting it..if only there were a vaccine
