When I had to have a skin graft, bio-oil was what all the med people said to use, so I did. Alleviated the itching for sure.
Cheers for that. When I have used bio-oil it seems to have "felt" better than moisturising creams, i.e. absorbs better, feels less greasy, makes my skin feel a bit more supple and less pure soft.
I actually once put anti-hydral on, then put a bit of bio-oil on top, before going to bed. This seemed to make my skin feel a bit more leathery, which was what I was after. Maybe unscientific but maybe the combination of drying moisture out of the skin and replacing it with oil?? Who the fuck knows.
TL, DR: will try more bio-oil when needed.
