Possibly, I highly doubt it could worsen them so you may as well try it, but like you mentioned bio oil is best so try to get some of that :)

Isn't sudeocrem like a antiobiotic cream? I don't think it will help you. If you're going to use it anyway, check it's in date.

Did it help at all?
I think it might reduce the redness.. but not the scarring.
But im open minded and anything is worth a try :)

It wont fade the scars i'm afraid to say, as has been said bio-oil or similar stuff works wonders. In my oppinion its the best.

"Sudocreme is a barrier cream mostly used for babies to prevent nappy rash. Prevents skin drying out, eczema, also an antiseptic for cuts, burns, etc.

If you want something for scars - use either Fade Out cream, or Bio Oil"

found this on yahoo

sudocreme won't make them worse, and it it feels good, then why the hell not? But bio oil works wonders. It might take a while, but they fade a lot. But you have to be patient.

I doubt it will work with old scars. But it often helps fresh ones not to scar so badly because it keeps the skin hydrated :)

Well, how much did you use? Scars are so hard to get rid of. I hope you use rubbing alcohol to get rid of infections if they are fairly new scars.
