Scar cream anyone?

[Elode 8,093]

I'm just wondering if anyone uses any thing on the surgery scars? My husband bought me Mederma advanced and Vitamin E oil. I just had surgery A week ago but I put it on. It's not like I'm going to be competing in any bikini contest but it would be nice to have them so visible. Does/did anyone else use anything and did it help?

You might try Jergens "skin firming". It was recommended to me by a friend. You might also look it up on Amazon.com and read the reviews to see if it might be for you.

Scarfade gel. It's not cheap. a tube runs about $50, but it does work. I first used it for facial scars I had from shingles.

I get a prescription cream from my dermatologist, since I get horrible scars that need a little help to fade away. My body produces excess collogen when it heals. Not fun. For me, it's cheaper to get a prescription, than it is to buy over the counter. When I've tried Mederma, it actually irritated my scars. I asked my hubby if scars bothered him at all. He said, "I dig chicks with scars." Love him! <3

My dermatologist prescribed the scarfade gel but said most insurances don't cover it. I tend to keloid and was really self conscious because the shingles literally ate holes into my face.

@@BLERDgirl that sounds painful.

It was. Shingles is painful facial shingles is even worse because the skin on your face is thinner.
