Will using a swimming cap stretch the scar?

I am about 7 months post-op and have been careful about not doing things to stretch the scar. I hope to go swimming soon but the scar is much more visible when my hair is wet. I was thinking of using a swimming cap but when I used it pre-op it was very tight. I wouldn't want to stretch the scar. Can I go ahead and use the swim cap or not? Any advice welcome.
