How long does scar tissue last after C-Section?
C-sections can cause scarring. In some women, these scars become thick, raised, and red. That may mean that your scar is hypertrophic, where your body created more scar tissue than necessary. A hypertrophic scar is harmless, but it may get irritated when you wear clothes or you may not like how it looks. Silicone has been shown to help reduce the appearance of scars over time. Using silicone gel or a silicone sheet on your scar can help your body break down unsightly scar tissue.
