disappear completely. But Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel can help them
appear softer, smoother and less noticeable.
My
Mederma® box says “do not use on open wounds.” at what point is my
wound considered completely closed?A wound is completely closed when
the scab falls off or the stitches are removed. You can begin to use Mederma®
as soon as there is no visible scab where the wound occurred and your stitches
have been removed. While there is still a scab or stitches present, keep the
wound clean and covered – this will speed healing time and reduce the
appearance of the resulting scar.
If I
use Mederma® on my face to treat acne scars, will it cause me to
break out?Mederma® Advanced Scar
Gel is a non-greasy, water-based gel, so you should be able to use it without
breaking out. However, everyone’s skin reacts differently to new products. Talk
to your dermatologist if you’re concerned about breaking out while using
Mederma®. Your best bet is to test Mederma® on a small
part of your face to see if you have a reaction to the product. If you do not
have a reaction, you can then use it on scars as you see fit.
If
I’m using Mederma® scar gel on a facial scar. Can I apply makeup
over it?Yes, you can use Mederma®
scar products with makeup. However, Mederma® works best when it can
be easily absorbed into the skin, so it’s best to apply Mederma®
when your skin is clean and then allow time for it to dry before applying
makeup. You may want to consult a sales associate at your local drug store or
department store regarding the best concealers, foundations and powders for
effective cover-up options.
What is Cepalin®?Cepalin® is the
proprietary botanical extract in all Mederma® products, which works
to improve the overall appearance, texture and color of scars.
What
makes Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel different from original Mederma®
scar gel?Mederma® Advanced Scar
Gel is improved. Unlike the original formula that had to be applied three times
a day, Mederma® Advanced is effective with just a 1X daily
application, making it more convenient for you to use, while still delivering
great results.

“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!”-- Charlene D, CA
“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.”-- John R, TX
“I stepped in
some ant spray my husband had spilled in our garage and broke both my legs just
below the knees. My right leg required surgery and lots of hardware. My
orthopedic surgeon did a great job, but ortho’s are not known for their pretty
work like plastic surgeons. I started using Mederma® as soon as my
incision was healed. I couldn’t be happier with the results and I’m touting
Mederma® every opportunity I get. Thank you so much for creating
such a great product. P.S. I’m walking!!! :)”-- Pam R, TX
