My surgeon gave me some kind of scar injections during the first year that flattened them and didnt stretch them much at all. Ask your surgeon or a dermatologist maybe about it

Massaging with bio oil can help loosen the tissue, but you might also need steroid injections to minimize their appearance. I have no experience in this as all my keloid scarring flattened out after a year of massages and scar tape and scar gel.
