Mix the raw honey and baking soda. Massage the mixture on the scar for about 3-5 minutes. Place a hot towel over the area. When the towel cools down, wipe the area clean. Do twice daily

Hello, There are various creams for scar but depends on type of scar whether pigmented, elevated or depressed. Use a sunscreen for 3 months and a depigmenting agent like melalite for a month. If elevated sometimes it may have hypertrophic tendency for which steroid, silicone gel etc will help. You can consult in private with pictures.
