scar treatment
since my last cut i have ended up with an ugly red scar on my arm. The rest are fading away quite well but that one just turned nasty on me. It's only an inch long but had turned this ugly shade of pinkish-red. kind of the shade of a really bad sunburn.
Thing is; I know there are products on the market that are supposed to help scars fade; I know they don't get rid of them completely but they do help them become less noticable. I'd just like to know which perticular product people would recomend; which, in your experience has helped the best. which product would you recomend? where did you buy it? and how much did it cost? |
I believe it's the actual act of massaging a scar that helps to "break it down", rather than which product you use, but you could try e45 cream, bio oil, or cocoa butter cream. Generally any cream designed to rub into your skin should worth, in theory, but I've heard plenty of good things about those three on here.

The best thing for scars I've used is Preventin AT. They have an Advanced Scar Therapy as well as a night gel. I've bought it at CVS (general pharmacy in the US). They're $15 each.
I've also used Mederma, Vitamin E, etc. They all helped some, but the Preventin AT was definitely the best. |
the only ting thats worked at all for me is bio oil.... good luck!

i second dermatix, whichyou can get free on perscription. i wrote a review for it on the main site :)
|
i used the mederma, neosporin and curad patches/ointments, as well as coco butter and pure vitamin E.
i cant say which one works the best since i used them all, but....at least one of them worked very well. the latter two are cheap, if nothing else. |
bio-oil is great, if you look in the reviews forum there may be some products that other people have suggested.
take care. |
