Really a 10 Star Product 
2006-06-15
After having two children via c-section that left keloids, I was not encouraged that Mederma would help after having my 3rd c-section and a scar revision during the process. Well, I was completely wrong. I started using Mederma one week after giving birth and now, six weeks later, the incision has NOT keloid and its barely noticeable, which makes this a 10 star product. I am very happy that I don't have to live with an unattractive scar any longer.
Lukewarm Review

I used this after having my second baby, complete with stretch marks and a keloid cesarean scar. I began using it when she was about five months old. Maybe I would have gotten better results had I acted sooner? I didn't realize my scar was a keloid, and was waiting for it to fade and soften. Once I realized what it was, I began using the Mederma. I went through the big tube, and saw minimal results, if any. It's hard to say if the improvement was from the product or just from time. I recommend scar massage to anyone who has had a c-section: my doctor and all my books didn't even mention it. Research it online. It will prevent adhesions from forming below your scar, which stick to the underlying tissues and may cause the keloid in the first place. It is also very painful when you get out of bed because the adhesions are pulling and feel like they're ripping. After faithfully doing the scar massage for about two months, my scar is looser and doesn't look like it's "stapled" down to my stomach muscles anymore. However, it is still red and raised, so I am continuing my search for a solution...

Didn't work for hypertrophic/keloid scarring

I had a c-section and as soon as the steri strips were removed after surgery I began using mederma. I used 3 tubes of the product over 2-3 months and I have a very thick red, raised scar. The surgeon performing the surgery is very skilled and the wound was closed properly. We both expected it to be barely noticeable in a few months. Mederma just didn't help to prevent hypertrophic scarring. I will use silicone sheets next time.
Very good product 2008-01-14
It helped a great deal and made my boyfriend's rather old scars look much less noticable.
Great Product 2007-09-18
I bought this product to treat an acne scar, and am very pleased with the results! Within a short time, the scar lightened and is less noticeable. Great product!
Actually works, but you have to apply it religiously 2007-07-08
Obviously nothing will make scars totally disappear right away, but this stuff helps alot. I had some pretty gnarly scratches from my new kitty, one on my leg and one on my wrist that were particularly bad that are fading fast thanks to mederma. I didn't start treating the one on my wrist right away because I wash my hands so much, and it started to turn into a raised keloid scar. I was really bummed about it, started applying mederma religiously, and layers have been peeling off so that now the scar is almost completely flat. This stuff is definitely worth it, especially for the price.
GREAT STUFF 2006-12-31
MY DAUGHTER AND I HAVE BEEN USING THIS NOW FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AND SO FAR I HAVE NOTICED HER SCARS (FROM MOSQUITO BITES) VANISHING AND MY ACNE (GO FIGURE) HAS CLEARED UP. SO I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT...
