Pros:

After 2 weeks, I am seeing significant improvement in a 2 yr old red spot. I am thrilled.

Cons:

can flake if you used too much or don't rub it in thoroughly. A small price to pay. Don't use the cream as it contains comedogenic ingredients.

I used to pick pimples which left me with some ugly red marks. They weren't raised or indented, but I had them for almost 2 years. I have been ussing Mederme Gel 3-4 times daily with a q-tip and now I can barely see the spots. I am so happy. I was considering chemical peels and lasers, but was reluctant because I scar so easily. I tried this stuff as a last resort, not expecting it to do jack. I am shocked. Seriously, buy it.

Pros:

Lightens marks- prevents picked pimples from leaving red marks

Cons:

price- lightens skin around pigmented areas too

Mederma works. I had severe hyperpigmentation on my cheeks and was very worried- even paid 400 for laser which didnt work- I got skrewed..... But honestly- picking pimples- tempting but BADDDDDD- but if you rub mederma on with a Qtip right on the effected part (rub rub rubbbbb! and then when it dries add another dab on top) I put this on at night before I went to bed and the next day my red marks were significently faded! talk about fast! just dont use it over a big area or it will fade the rest of the skin too! I have olive toned skin- it worked for me! i'm going to continue using it as I have a huge scar a cyst left behind and it's been 2 days and helped a huge deal with that already! better than scar erase! good luck!

Pros:

It doesn't make it worse!! It works really good! the smell is nice too!

Cons:

None! its not even that expensive compared to the 4,000 i was about to spend on fraxel!

I've actually noticed improvement and it works fast on the newer scars! it takes a while for the older scars though. Just use it!

Pros:

The best scar remover out there.
I have used many, many, many product to clear my scars and nothing works better than Mederma.
It is also clearing up my old scars and takes the redness from the newer scars immediately.

Cons:

None

Pros:

It actually works!

Cons:

None

I have been using it on my rather fresh chicken pox scars, only used it on body parts that are exposed, and I really see the difference, I thought I was gonna' have to live with horrible dots for the rest of my life, and this has saved me! PS: I use a drugstore knock off of this product, exact same ingredients for half the price!

Pros:

Work's Fast. I have used it for 2 weeks and have already been seeing great results. Very self concious about my skin. I have had scars from acne for about 10 years and it works on old scars.

Cons:

Skin does get itchy at times, also dry. I still continued to use it with no problems.

This is a great product. Ive tried alot of things and this is probably the only one that has work effectively. Ive been to many dermatologists and nothing has compared to this.

Pros:

It seems to be working on my scars a little, they are old, and i am going to give it more time. I have only used it for about 2 weeks, but the scars do seem harder to see.
I have the new kind the smell is kinda tropical. I don't love it, but it's

Cons:

Wellll. While it doesn't agrovate, burn, or make my skin itch, it does tend to like...get kinda flakey like a peeling sunburn. It doesn't bother me too much.

It is a good product that may or may not work for you. It tends to make some people itchy while it makes others skin worse. I believe it just depends on the type of skin you have. Mederma is doing well for me so far, and I highly recommend it. What's there to lose?
