Hi,

My wife is in hospital to removing a cyst. She'll have a scar after surgery along her stomach.

She's asked me to have a look online for any advice on how to help with getting rid, or making it less evident.
Can anyone give advice one what she can possible do after she gets home?
The most known method is using bio-oil, but is there any other method?

After a little research, the two most effective methods are... (using them together has apparently seen good results as well)...

1) Bio oil

2) Dermatix silicone sheets. (also available in a gel)

Using the two methods together also apparently works well, using the bio oil through the day, and leaving the dermatix silicone sheet on through the night.

I've purchased the dermatix, which is ridiculously expensive via their own website and Amazon, but managed to purchase it through an eBay seller for half the price.

Maybe so, time will tell I suppose, I'll try keeping a picture log of her progress (if she let's me!), and post them up on this thread every few weeks.
It's from various online forums that I've taken these two products as being the most effective (without going down the cosmetic surgery route)
