Q: can this gel be used on your eyelids after surgery

submitted by Juliuli - 4 years ago
  • A: You can use Mederma on a scar on any external part of your body once a wound has closed or your sutures have been removed. If a scab has formed, wait until the scab falls off and apply as directed on package. You may not use Mederma internally or on any mucosal area such as eyes, in the mouth or nose unless directed by directed by a healthcare professional. Add as applies: • Under arms: Mederma may be used on a scar in the under- arm area. We would suggest using Mederma Advanced Scar Gel or Mederma PM. • Lips: Mederma Advanced Gel can be used for scars on the lips. However, it should not be ingested. Confining Mederma to the scar only, gently massage a small amount into the scar until the product disappears. Do not apply Mederma to open wounds on or around the mouth such as cold sores. Mederma should only be applied once the wound is completely healed, any stitches are removed, and no scabbing is present. • Genitals: You can use Mederma on a scar on your genitals. However, Mederma is not for internal use

After only two applications, my scar became very irritated, red, and itchy. I discontinued use and the irritation went away. I'm obviously allergic to one of the ingredients. Unfortunately, the ingredients are not disclosed on the tube or package, and there is no monograph included in the package either. I am only now reading reviews, which I should have done before purchase, and I see that many other people are having the same problem with this scar gel. It seems the formulation needs to be reviewed and changed. For starters, the artificial fragrance should be eliminated. It is way too strong smelling and unnecessary. No, I do not recommend this product.

I had a mini face lift and I was left with raised scars around my ears. I was so self conscious that I thought I would never show my ears again. I’ve been using this gel along with prayer. I found where I could make a review because I literally just looked at my ears for the first time in a long time with a side mirror and I promise the scars almost look like they disappeared. I mean I really looked botched! This is amazing because I can finally show my skin without being self conscious or hiding. Praise God and Mederma! I’m wearing a ponytail for the first time in almost two years! Thank you ❤️

I tried a new product for my face that made me have a horrible reaction on my skin. They started with sores to scares and the scares were so apparent it looked like I had freckles. Thank you Maderma for giving my skin and confidence back. I also get hives and it has taken the scars away from that. So I can wear tank tops without feeling insecure.

I bought mederma about three weeks ago by accident. I fell on concrete and scraped my arm. Once the scrape healed, I started to using mederma. The scar was very noticeable, but after about three weeks, the scar has faded a lot. Not only is it fading, it is also getting smaller and length. I use this product twice daily. I am so excited that I accidentally stumbled up on this product. I will buy again.

I'm disappointed with this product after purchasing it based on the packaging claims to be a leading product in its category. However, there are no ingredients listed on the tube of gel, which I find extremely telling. Thanks to reading another review on this site, I found out that one of its ingredients is "fragrance." Why in the world would you include this in a medicinal product that you are supposed to apply to yourself, a product that absorbs into your skin, every day, for months on end? There is no need for fragrance to be added, it is silly/pointless at best and a toxic irritant at worst. No one is expecting a scar relief gel to smell fabulous... should be reformulated without it or else create a variant of the product that is specifically fragrance-free.

The smell is awful. You would think for $15.00 it should be a better smelling formula. They should have whatever awful fragrance they used listed on the front of the box. This will let buyers know this product is scented.

I rarely give products a 1/5 stars so this is major for me. I’ve been using the Mederma scar CREAM for many years but for some reason it was discontinued at target. I figured I’d try out the gel thinking it would be no different… I was wrong! The gel not only dried out my scar areas but broke me out in hives. I do not have sensitive skin at all so this was very unusual for me. My scars, which were very close to being clear, are now turning white, making them visible again. The gel itself has an okay smell but the substance is very sticky and unpleasant to have on your fingers. I’m so upset and will be returning this. BRING BACK THE MEDERMA CREAM, TARGET!!!
