I hadn’t heard about rubbing sideways, not the length of the scat.
Thx for that info.

@nana082526 Rubbing across the scar can break down any scar tissue that tends to form in the direction of the incision. If you see a raised or depressed area it is especially important to do tgis.

@I understand that VE is no longer recommended for surgical scars. I have been using silicon scar cream. Making sure I use sunscreen as well.
