I recently had a surgery to get a mole removed from my face. My plastic surgeon informed me it would leave a scar, but I didn't know what to expect. After the removal I started to notice the scar forming and couldn't believe how horrible it appeared. My surgeon told me once it was fully healed I could start applying Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel to it and I should see results in two months. After the first 4 weeks of using Mederma® I saw amazing results. It has been 4 months since my surgery and my scar is barely noticeable. Thank you Mederma® for making my scar almost vanish! :)

 

Years ago I was involved a car accident – it was a head-on collision – and even though I had my seatbelt on, my head hit the windshield. Fortunately, I didn’t have any serious head injuries, but the glass shattered and cut me. From the middle of my forehead over on my right side was in pretty bad shape. It almost looked like a bear clawed my face. I also had a broken leg that they had to put a rod in to help it set properly, so I have a big scar on my hip. But my main concern at the time was my face. Everyone worries about their face – we’re all thinking about how we look to other people when we’re out in the world. So six months after the accident I had reconstructive surgery and after the stitches were removed, I used Mederma^® religiously, every day, and it worked. I know if I hadn’t used Mederma^®, the scars on my forehead would be much more noticeable than they are. You can barely see them today. I’m really telling my story to let you know that if Mederma^® worked for me, with how bad my injuries were, you shouldn’t hesitate to use it for any scar you have, no matter how big or small it is. I still keep a tube of Mederma^® handy at the house, because I’m always bumping into things and getting little cuts. My husband uses it too, for a scar he has from a shoulder surgery. I hope that if you’re watching this because you or someone you love is self-conscious about a scar you’ll go out and get Mederma^® as soon as you can, because it’s one of the best things I ever did for myself.

I am a certified dog trainer. I got careless working with a German Shepherd which resulted in a bite to my face just below my left eye. Dog bites typically are not sutured, but the ER doctor that treated my bite was concerned with scarring, so she used two stitches to help close the wound. Then she recommended Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel. As you will see in the before and after pictures, Mederma^® worked wonders. Thank you for your fine product.

 

I was recently in a near-fatal accident and I'd like to share a recommendation for your product, Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel. As seen in the pictures here, it involved a laceration to my neck very close to my trachea. Also, I obtained another cut diagonally across the bridge of my nose and my cheek.

 

I used to have depression and a problem with self-harm. I was burning and cutting myself nearly every day, on my wrists, arms, legs, ankles, and chest. That's become the past. After I got out of that ditch, I wanted to make the scars look better. The pharmacist recommended Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel and I bought it without hesitation. After two months of using it, my scars are less noticeable! It's really wonderful.

I used Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel after surgery on my face for removal of a lesion. The scar was about 1.5-2 cm on my right cheek. After my wound healed, I started using the gel by massaging it in a few times a day — in the morning before putting on makeup and twice in the evening, as soon as I come home and just before going to bed. The gel has a light texture and absorbs into the skin quickly, so I could put makeup on and go to bed without worrying about having marks on the pillows. I’m very happy with the excellent results I got after three months. Take a look at my photos! My friends don’t notice my scar as much, nor can I.

 

Last summer, I got attacked by a dog. He ripped through my shirt and managed to tear into the skin on my stomach. It was so painful and the wound took a while to heal. My biggest worry was that I would be left with an ugly scar. To my horror, that is exactly what happened. I used oils, vitamin E, cocoa butter...NOTHING WORKED. Then I remembered a friend telling me she used Mederma^® on her stretch marks and decided to try the gel for scars. I'm so happy to see the deep ugly scar looking better, slowly but surely. It is loads lighter in color than it was at first. I wish I had taken a picture of my scar when I first got it so everyone could see the difference now! I recently got a burn, but I'm not worried — Mederma^® is there for me!!

I can't praise Mederma^® enough! A few years ago I had my thyroid removed and the surgery left a scar. I started using the original Mederma^® as soon as I could and in a couple of months my scar was very difficult to detect. People really have to look closely to see it. Now I am using Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel on a new scar from stomach surgery. Thanks, Mederma^®!

I got my belly button pierced two and a half years ago, right when I turned 18. I did it at a shop in the college town I go to school at, and never thought I'd have problems with it. Big mistake. It was done incorrectly, with too small of a gauge, the wrong type of metal jewelry, the wrong shaped jewelry — it was just a big mess. I had to get it taken out and I was left with an ugly belly button scar that resulted in me barely swimming over the summer because I was so embarrassed. Finally, fed up with the scar, I began using my roommate's Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel. I can already see it working! I'm so excited to be seeing changes and will recommend anyone who has an unflattering scar to try this product. It’s made the scar look better and much lighter and I can't wait to repurchase!

I am a 40+ African American female who has been dealing with extremely oily skin my entire life. All my life I've heard that you should moisturize your skin even if you have oily skin. Once I reached 40 I decided I would add moisturizer to my skin care regime. I purchased products specifically designed for African American, oily skin. I realized too late that the products were doing more harm than good. I started developing acne and blackheads all over my skin. I can't control my urge to pick at my skin. I would be in the mirror for hours on end picking at the acne on my face. Before long my face was full of marks and scars. I bought a product designed to fade the marks. The product did fade the spots but it was a cream-based product which added more oil to my skin and I continued to have blackheads and acne. I stopped using everything except for a daily facial wash. My sister mentioned that a friend at work was using Mederma^® and she had gotten a sample which seemed to work really well. I was really skeptical about Mederma® and didn’t want to end up with yet another product that didn't work but I tried it anyway. The first thing I liked about the Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel is that it was a gel and not a cream. I've been using if for about 2 months now and it really does work.

I had a breast reduction and I have acne on my back and face. Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel has done GREAT for me.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in June of 2011; I immediately had a double mastectomy and started the process of reconstruction surgery. Well here it is almost one year later and I just finished the first big surgery, it was 10 1/2 hours long and I have a 16 inch scar from left side of waist to the right side of waist. They essentially took all the fat and blood vessels and skin from my waist and used it to create new breasts. I just started using the Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel, although it looks like I will have to buy stock in the company because I am going through so much LOL. It’s good to read the stories of others who have had success, I am hoping I will be one of them.

I had a horrible scar after falling through a glass window; I had a big ugly scar for the last eight years. Now, thanks to Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel, the scar is barely noticeable and I’m so glad I tried this product.

So I have scars on my forehead and scars on my cheeks. I just started using Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel and my scars have gotten softer. I’m so excited for them to continue to look even better.

I absolutely LOVE Mederma^® Advanced Scar Gel, it works beautifully, and I wish I had tried it long ago! I also wish I had taken before and after photos to show my great results from using Mederma^®. I researched online how to treat burn scars, and that's when I came across Mederma^®. I've used it all over my face and armpit and I'm amazed at the dramatic, great results I've experienced, and I'm sure it'll improve even more as I keep using the product. THANK YOU Mederma^® for saving my face!
