Highly recommended. 0 of 0 found this review helpful: It does work--but you will need to keep buying it., 2008-04-17 You will definitely see an improvement in your scars. I repeat that again with emphasis: you will see an improvement. I have to tell you that the improvement won't be until you use maybe five or more tubes over five months. The tube is not that large and it doesn't last all that long. It is costly, no matter where you buy it--the Internet or your local store. But, it is the only scar product I have tried that does what it says it will do---so for the third time: don't expect your scars to be 100% gone, even after five or six tubes. BUT: you will be pleased---very, very pleased, indeed. I would say a 90% improvement, and that is wonderful. But not from one tube. I do recommend it and I like it. Not messy and don't use too much as it flakes off. Follow directions. It is a fine product, but buy in bulk!!! 0 of 0 found this review helpful: Awesome, 2008-02-14 I was in a car accident and i have used Mederma on my face for my scars from glass. i have used it for about 7 months now and it has diminished the, reduced redness, and made them shrink. i beleive they will go away completly without surgery. mederma has done wonders for me. thank you mederma! 12 of 15 found this review helpful: It's no better than inexpensive alternatives., 2008-02-02 Science journals have reported on Mederma compared to petroleum jelly for treating scars, and they concluded there was no difference. Sources: Shih, Richard, and Joshua Waltzman. "Review of Over-the-Counter Topical Scar Treatment Products." Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (2007): 1091-5.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology 55(2006): 1024-31. 2 of 2 found this review helpful: Mederma is better than Patroleum jelly/Neosporin, 2008-01-18 I recently had abdominal and chest surgery and my doctor recommended Mederma once the wounds had healed and all of the stitches were out (6 weeks post-op). My new wounds stretch from hip to hip and essentially armpit to armpit (under each breast to try to conceal it as much as possible). I decided to also apply Mederma to some old scars I have (a few stretch marks on my belly and an old piercing scar in my navel). I have only been using it for three days and I already can see a reduction in the redness of the new scars. My skin has also begun peeling which doesn't hurt at all and I read online that this is a good thing; it means the skin is renewing itself. I find its odor to be non-offensive and vaguely lemony and once the product rubs into the skin (which is quickly) it goes away altogether. This product is not messy (which I appreciate because up until I started using it I had been using Neosporin and wrapping the oily mess under gauze to keep it from making grease stains on my clothes and just wiping off) and it doesn't burn or itch at all after I apply it. I have heard great reviews that it can reduce many scars up to 90%! I am excited to see how my scars will look in a few months time of using this product. I also read a report that tries to compare Mederma to the use of Petroleum jelly and they just don't compare, the method of effectiveness as well as the physical properties of the two are completely different and I stated as such in a response to that review similar to what I am stating here. I have read that some people are allergic to this product. I don't know if it is the active ingredient (the onion extract) or the vehicle (I notice that it contains PEG-4) and if you apply too much it may leave a mark (because it changes the physical composition of previously damaged skin by causing re-organization of the collagen and other components of the scar and if you mix it with other cleaners and skin products it can cause burning - so follow the directions!) It is also a little pricey in my opinion (I paid $18 for a tube of less than one ounce and I know I will be buying more if I am going to be using it on such big scars for 2-6 months - probably lots more, even tho a little bit does go a long way) but if you are self-concious about some scars or just would like them to be less noticeable (like me) I would recommend this product.
