Just an FYI, I believe the Curad products are no longer available, and the Cica Care product is not readily available in pharmacies. I would recommend Kelo-cote, a silicone gel that has been widely studied and proven effective, and is much easier to use and is invisible so there is no big "patch" showing, especially of concern in exposed scars. There was an extensive Pharmacist Continuing Education paper published in a recent Pharmacy Times that cited a variety of sources and spoke highly of silicone gels.
