SMILES

I have heard of a product called Mcderma for facial scars. Can you tell me if it is a cream or what type of product? Do you know if it is known to be successful? Where can it be purchased? Please reply to jtnolan@rocketmail.com
Thank you.

It is actually Mederma, hopefully the spelling is correct. It is ove the counter, but you have to request it from the pharmacist since they keep it behind the counter. It is expensive, but I have used it for a keloid scar. I thinkit works best on scars that are fairly new rather than several years healed. I think it was first used in Germany and is an onion extract. Am not sure if it is safe for young children.

Here's the official site for them:

and here is a page about them from Epinions which contains people's reviews of the product:

Hope this helps
