ScarAway Silicone Scar Sheets for C-sections (1.5" x 7")

Due to health insurance, I had 3 surgeries in the last six months (maximize deductible, etc.). Anyway, I first had bunionectomy surgery on both feet and began using Mederma Advanced after both incisions had closed up which my podiatrist ok'd. Then, I had a tummy tuck (July 2020) which is a bikini line incision. As that incision closed up, I asked that dr if I could also use Mederma Advanced on it because I do believe it was helping my foot scars. My dr said said there is more research behind silicone for scars vs. that product so I went on Amazon and started looking for silicone strips and found these. One thing that is important when shopping is to check the length of the strips. This product had 7-inch strips vs. most other which were 3-inch strips. I've been using the silicone strips for a week on both my feet and my tummy. It was pretty interesting as I saw a marked improvement with my foot scars after the first day. Since my tummy scar is fresh, I haven't noticed a dramatic improvement in one week but all the info. clearly says you need to use these for like 8 weeks for best results so I'll update may review at that time. Please note these strips are very sticky so be careful when removing from their plastic sheets so it doesn't stick on itself. Also, after reading another review, I immediately rinse them and use hand soap when I take them off and put them on the large more durable plastic strip provided in the box. It's very important to keep them clean in between use per the instructions. The first time I had them on in a shower, I used Saran wrap cling plastic to cover them up but the next time I did not because I was short on time. I had no issue with them in the shower or afterwards peeling off. Now, not sure if that'd be true if you do it repeatedly. UPDATE: Included pics. 2-ft shot on 7/20 in dr’s office. Single ft shots taken at home on 8/18 so lighting is different. Haved used for 3-1/2 weeks now. Again, cleaning strips EVERY time after each use is important to maintain the integrity of these strips. Instructions say you can use 1 strip for 2 weeks. At this point, there’s a little nominal curling on the end of a them but they still stick fine and I may be able to use longer than 4 weeks but I may need to trim off some.They do appear to be helping. Will update my review at 8 weeks.

I have had impressive results with these. My husband and I have both used them and both agreed that these work fantastic. I have a C-section scar due to an unethical doctor John Milton Hutson who I strongly recommend you stay away from —who did it just because he could, at New York Presbyterian Weill Cornell labor and delivery. My husband has a scar from Moh’s surgery on his foot. He also used it on his upper arm where he burned himself on a hot iron griddle. For me on my abdomen, the strips adhere perfectly until I remove them or get them wet. I recommend taking them off to bathe or to shower. My scar healed really nicely on one side. I tend to carry my baby on one side and I wonder if that has anything to do with how the scar healed. The point is that on one side this car has disappeared to the point where it blends in with my skin and is nearly invisible. I’m 9.5 months out. I waited several months before ordering these and I don’t wear them all the time so given the effort I am very happy and I think they last a long time. The box says that they are washable and you just hang them up to dry when you’re done but we do not find it they wash that easily. Since my husband’s scars are on parts of his body that he moves a lot or there is a lot of friction he needs to replace his much more often. So far we have re ordered once or twice I think that if you’re diligent about keeping the strip all and are very keen to get rid of your scar you might have excellent results as we have I still need to get rid of the remaining 2/3 of the c-section scar. It appears to work a little less well on the keloid variety or once the hard scar tissue has set in. I’m still inside the one year mark and I think that I can continue to get some pretty impressive results if I keep at it.

I have had a very large scar on my eye for almost 15 years. For six months, I was receiving expensive laser treatments to reduce the appearance of the keloid. Since I was not seeing any improvements after six months, I decided to give the Scar Away a try. After a month, I started noticing little changes to my scar. I apply a small piece on my scar every night and I can see the changes. It is not an immediate change but I feel confident and don't hide the scar with makeup anymore. It was a big indentured scar. Now it is raised almost even with my other skin. I also use a bleaching cream to lighten my color. One of my friends complimented the clearing of the scar thinking that it was the laser treatments but it is ScarAway that is reducing my keloid scar disappear. It is amazing!!!!

I used the regular scar strips a few years ago after I had surgery and they worked wonders - they really do flatten and fade scars super fast. After my c-section I knew I had to use them again, and I have not been disappointed! I was excited to see these longer strips made especially for c-sections. I highly recommend - after only a few weeks of use I'm already seeing a dramatic difference in the color and appearance of my scar. The strips are easy to care for and do not lose their stickiness at all during the 2 weeks of recommended use per strip. I tell all my friends about these! ***UPDATE - I originally posted this review when I was about 2 months post-op. I used the strips as directed on the package, and after using the entire box my scar was greatly diminished in color (not so red) and bumpiness. Now almost 2 years post-op my c-section scar is literally almost invisible - something I attribute greatly to these strips! My sister is so impressed she'll be using the shorter strips for surgery she had about two months ago. I felt the need to follow up on my review to tell shoppers that although I feel these strips work amazingly well short term, you really see the biggest changes over the next months and years, as the strips help set the scar up for a lifetime of fading color and improved texture.

Started using it 3 weeks after the surgery and it has made my belly scar almost invisible.

Great product. Will but again soon

Excellent product, assisted healing of scare quickly. This product is very easy to apply, and the material is very soft and extremely comfortable to wear. I’ve used them for 4 weeks and I’ve seen a huge improvement. The only thing is, after a few wash the edges won’t have enough adhesive.

Es la mejor de su línea compren está dura.mas sé pega mejor , e probado la verde no funciona igual ,está pega bien , se debe de lavar la erida y también lavar la banda cada vez que se hacer deje secar bien en el plástico que trae para guardar ,nunca despegue la banda una vez puesta con eso le durará los 10 días , alternelo con una crema para heridas

Las estoy probando para una crearía y va muy bien. Se pega sin problemas.. la puedes lavar y con la banda de plástico que viene en la caja se seca enseguida y puedes volver a ponerla
