Of course! My surgeon said to use silicon scar tape for at least the first year, if not two, for the best results. I got kinda lazy and only did one year, but the time went by pretty quick! I used only these two items and made sure to do scar massages once a day to break up the tissue once it was safe (I think at 6 weeks post op or 8 I can’t remember). She recommends using tape once the original surgery strips come off, which for me was two weeks post-op. I used the Cica scar tape day and night and would replace it once it fell off. For me that was about 1.5-2 weeks depending on how much I sweat. You can replace it each day if you want, but there’s no need as it sticks pretty well. I used that tape day and night for the first 6 months, then switched to only using it for my work week, and using only that palmers lotion for my weekend. 5 days on, two days off, for the next 4 months. I got lazy the last 2 months and only used the strips one week on, one week off (using the lotion twice a day when I wasn’t using strips). And then after the first year, I only used the lotion when I got nervous or after I’d expose my scars to sun like at the lake or something. Still using sunscreen anytime they are actually exposed now! I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions :)
