MUCH Better than Store Brand August 6, 2010 D. Allen (McKinney Texas) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought a small tube of this after having total knee replacement. I was miffed at the high price, but had been told by my doctors that this was what I should buy. After using it for a couple of months, and running out, I wasn't happy with the slow progress I was making. So when I went for a refill, I bought the Walgreens store brand instead since it was much cheaper. After only a few days, the scar was worsening - growing in both height and width. I ordered this large tube on Amazon, and I immediately exchanged the store brand for another tube of Mederma, and the scar is back on track for a slow resolution. My doctor said to be patient; the larger the scar, the longer the treatment time will be.

much better than bio oil October 8, 2009 Ree Ree (Cahokia, IL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Mederma works very well, I tried Bio Oil and it just did not work. I saw results after 15 days as I have extensive scarring from having my larynx removed due to cancer.
it's just sunscreen August 14, 2009 azriel jinx (Renton, WA) 8 out of 10 found this review helpful
I work in a pharmacy, and the general opinion of our pharmacists is that mederma is basically just sunscreen, which aids in the prevention of scarring, but is not for the treatment of older scars. They also say the only thing that breaks down scar tissue is silicone, and the only good (and affordable) cream that contains this ingredient is Scarzone. Mederma does not contain this ingredient.
I am hard to please, but I am very happy with this product April 21, 2009 A. Dugas 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have always had clear skin till this past December I broke out with horrible acne on both sides of my face. It finally went away after taking a 2 month cycle of acne medication.
However, I was left with scars on both sides of my face from me picking and popping pimples. I assumed that after a month or two that these scars would fade away. Not so! I tried to cover them with makeup, but that wasn't working so I turned to Mederma.
I wasn't optimistic, but I was desperate and it was worth a shot.
I have been using it for 3 weeks, and I have seen quite an improvement already. The texture of my scars have changed, and the color has faded so much that whenever I put makeup on you can't even see my scars anymore.
On most days I can only do one application (before I go to bed), but on days where I don't have to wear makeup all day I can do 3 applications.
I have no problems with the smell, especially it being so close to my nose. Smells like old flowers or something, but it goes away after a couple of minutes. I also have no problems with itching. I read on one website that you need to rub it in hard and make sure it is fully absorbed.
I also started wearing sun block on my face spf70 when I go outside.
I am very happy that Mederma has given me my clear skin back.
