6 weeks post -op. Healing well, yet slowly. This was a mini-sternal incision. Wendy

Looking good, Wendy! Are you using anything on the incision yet? Hot compresses?

Hi Wendy, your scar looks very similar to my mini stern scar (MVR 12/26/14). My surgeon said to use vitamin E lotion once a day & so far, no problems! Take care, Jenni
