User questions & answers

Question:	Hi, can you tell me the expiration date the cream? please thanks you
Answer:	I have never checked. I use it periodically, maybe 1-3 evenings then not until I feel I need to apply again. I am sure if I used it daily for a week, I would not have any spots/freckles anymore. One of the most important things is to use sun screen daily or you will get them back slowly. Also, a tidbit, I add baby diaper rash ointment containing 40% zinc oxide to my sun screen as the zinc oxide really blocks the damaging sun effects.
Question:	Can it work for 6 years old kid? The scar is on my son’s face
Answer:	Yes, It fade the dark spot which is from the acne scars.
Question:	Is it work for hypopigmented scars
Answer:	I have been using for years. I am brown skin. It neither whitens or lightens. It evens your skin tone and makes it look brighter. The hydroquinone helps to fade dark spots from acne and, homormal changes.
Question:	What if I have a scar that is 20 years old? Appendix removal
Answer:	Hi,Since lactic acid is listed at an inactive ingredient, the exact concentration is unknown. Inactive ingredients are any ingredients that the FDA does not consider “active.” While such ingredients still must have an established record of safety, they are not regulated in the same manner as active ingredients, nor does the FDA require such ingredients to be proven safe prior to use. Instead, the major requirement is that "inactive" ingredients be listed in descending order of concentration; therefore, the ingredient with the largest concentration is listed first, then the next largest, and so forth, if present at a concentration of at least 1% in the product. Ingredients present at concentrations less than 1%, however, can be listed in any order thereafter.

Before

I had taken a nasty fall trying to rush back to my apartment one night in the winter of 2011. I had sprained my ankle and scraped my knee very bad that I left a trail of blood from the curb at which I had fallen, up the stairs and into my apartment. I was really worried about the deep scrape on my knee.

After

My friend suggested I use Mederma having recently used it on a scar of her own she's had for years. After my wound healed, I gave it a shot and I am so glad I did. In fact, my boyfriend had a similar wound on his knee from a track event around the same time I had my wound. Four months later his scar is still very visible, while my scar is virtually impossible to see!

Product description

Tonight is the night change can begin, with Mederma pm intensive overnight scar cream. It's the first and only overnight scar cream specifically formulated to work while you sleep. During sleep our bodies work harder to reverse the skin damage caused during the day, repairing and regenerating skin cells at a faster rate. Mederma pm intensive overnight scar cream is formulated to complement this nighttime activity with tripeptol, a skin-nourishing complex with peptides, collagen and antioxidants to promote healthy looking skin and help your skin fight free radical damage. Once-nightly application is clinically shown to make scars smaller and less visible and can begin to bring noticeable results in as little as 14 nights. Now, the last thing you think about at night makes your scar the last thing you think about during the day. You can safely use Mederma PM with other cosmetic products like lotions and makeup. Please consult your healthcare professional before using Mederma PM with other topical (on the skin) products that you purchase with a prescription.

• safety warning: For external use only. When using this product do not get into eyes. Stop use and ask a doctor if condition worsens or symptoms last more than 7 days or clear up and occur again within a few days. Do not use on deep puncture wounds, animal bites, and serious burns. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.
• directions: Mederma PM Intensive Overnight Scar Cream should be evenly applied and gently massaged into the scar once nightly until fully absorbed for 8 weeks on newer scars and 3-6 months on older scars.

On older scars you may start using Mederma immediately. Do not apply to broken skin.

User questions & answers

Question:	does it work on old acne scars
Answer:	Yes. I have noticed tremendous improvement. It does take time and continued use. I also use Bio Oil and Perfect Image Revitaboost Peel Pads-Level 2.
Question:	Do you use moisturizer with this
Answer:	I don't. I have sensitive, easily dried out skin. I use Stridex pads, which dry my skin, followed up with this product. I put this on my entire face instead of a moisturizer and it works great. If I have too much oil on my face, I break out. This does not make me break out but instead helps prevent it along with the Stridex. 100% recommend this product.
Question:	How long does this bottle last (approx- if used as recommended nightly)? Is there any sort of scent
Answer:	I think I've been using it about a month and I've just run out, but I'm only putting it on a few small areas. I am using it once or twice daily. It has a light herbal scent but nothing too noticeable.
Question:	Will this work on my acne scars ? I have a few
Answer:	I have only used it on a new surgery scar and it worked wonders. It takes a long time tho, I have been using it for 5 months and will continue using it.

Caring for scars

Wounds to the skin and tissue can heal on their own over time. But scars will remain after those wounds heal.

Types of care for scars:

Once you have a scar, it will not go away completely. However, proper care can help wounds heal with less scarring. And once the wound has closed, you can take steps to help improve how a scar looks or feels.

Talk to your doctor about how to care for your skin to reduce the appearance of scarring, and about what you can expect for any scar care he or she may recommend.

Non-Prescription Products:

Depending on the cause and type of scar, different products can help manage different concerns like pinkness or redness, for example. Others can help improve the appearance of a scar in other ways.

In-office care your doctor may suggest

For scars that cause pain, discomfort or limit your ability to move easily, your family doctor, plastic surgeon or a dermatologist (a doctor who specializes in skin conditions) has many options to care for you. For the best possible results when caring for scars, be sure to follow the directions of your doctor and those on the labels of any products you use.

Directions:

Mederma PM Intensive Overnight Scar Cream should be evenly applied and gently massaged into the scar until fully absorbed once nightly for 8 weeks on newer scars and 3-6 months on older scars. Begin using Mederma PM as soon as new skin has formed, typically two or more weeks after the injury or surgery. Make sure the scab has come off naturally and any stitches have been removed. On older scars you may start using Mederma immediately. Do not apply to broken skin.

Results take time:

Don’t get discouraged if you don’t see improvement right away. Generally, Mederma PM users start to see noticeable improvement within 2-4 weeks of use and optimum improvement in 8 weeks, but every scar is different, so yours may take a bit more time.

Mederma PM is available in a 1 oz. tube in the first aid aisle and a 1.7 oz jar in the skin care aisle.

User questions & answers

Question:	how is it for older scars
Answer:	It's pretty much the same, SO FAR... Directions say to use 3-4x a day for older scars for 6months or longer... My old scar is a little lighter but still the same... But im holding on to hope... Hopefully that answers your a question :) good luck!
Question:	My box was sealed but the tube did not have a seal. Did anyone have a seal on the tube of this product
Answer:	No the tube doesn’t have a seal I have been using it over a year purchased min 6 tubes in tidal thanks
Question:	Will it help with old facial dark spots
Answer:	No, I don't think so. It didn't help for my fresh scar from surgery, either. I have been using it for thrre months now with no improvement.
Question:	Will this help with 10 year old deep scars
Answer:	Yes, I have scars from 40 years ago that it makes a difference. However, the older the scar, the longer it takes to get rid of it. I'm on about a year on the oldest ones and while they are better, they are not gone yet. (about half). Note: I don't use it everyday. I have found on new scars that once every other day, even every 3rd day is fine. I think the "once daily" thing is just to sell more product. On new scars where I can monitor them very well, I've never found them to heal any faster every day vs every other day or even every third day.
