I've decided to try to get rid of my scars.
They are pretty superficial, but white marks on the stomach stands out nontheless.
I've decided to do 1,5mm dermarolling, however there must be some other products out there who can increase / excellerate the process?
Mederma? is it a scam? |

It you are going to dermaroll I would not use any additional treatments like peels or anything like that. How about adding retin-a?
Most scar treatments need to be used right after or shortly after you get the scar. So I'm not sure silicone scar treatments products would help. I agree mederma does not work at all. |

| Vitamin C serums and Retin A will be good to compliment your dermarolling. I would also take lots of Vitamin C internally as it helps your body make collagen in the skin. If that doesn't work, there is also Fraxel but its expensive. |

| mederma is supposed to work only on scars, but not pits. My GP recommended it to me on my scars and i'm still on it testing for results. How long have you all used it? |

| Try applying a mixture of lemon juice and cucumber juice to scars. Wash off after 15mins. These will fade the scars as both lemon and cucumber are natural bleach. |

Interesting idea, Pumi. Will this work to fade hormonal spots or other blemishes on face, or will the solution be too rough on sensitive facial skin? |

Supposedly Cica Care silicone gel sheet is good for scars, even the old one. You can get it cheaper on ebay. |

| Perfectionist, I just saw that you wanted to try the dermaroller. I read a lot about copper peppide for skin remodeling. Have you researched on that yet? |

| For scars and stretch marks people seem to get great results with the Epidermx II and Chrysalyx, I love just what they do for my face, but greatnewskin has some amazing before and after photos, and EDS also sells them! |

I think tea tree oil is the killer.
But it's too strong for me, the area I applied to would get redness and dryness 2 hours later. |

| tea tree oils kills bacteria, it has no effect on the scar. |

I recall reading a good review about Epidermx on this forum and decide to order it. Hope it really works.  |
