I have severe sun damage on my face from using products when I was young improperly. The scar is old, and seemingly deep. Think it will work?

I used the product on a small facial scar next to my nose. Used the product on a small facial incision next to my nose. Had some bad cells removed. Healing was really remarkable for me. I have read reports from others (Amazon) that it has assisted others on older scars as well. I do know the product tends to smooth things out. While expensive, it was a good purchase. I cant attest to whether it will work for you as I'm not a medical professional and I do not know the extent of the damage as it applies to your situation. I would seek advice of a Dermatologist or your family physician.

Yes, it can be used for acne scars as long as they are not an "active" pimple.

I don't think so. Very little if any difference in acne scars. It is good for wrinkles, though. Saw a definite improvement.

Yes, but nothing too large or deep. Surface scars will heal much faster with the Magic.

As far as I know yes. I use it everytime one of my children get a scar and I apply it daily until it goes away and I usually see quick results.

I use this everyday on my face and neck, underneath my make up. It has removed my little wrinkles around my eyes and lips, but I'm not sure about scars.

Sure it'll work. Though the question you should be asking is "is it recommended for dry skin" in which case you need to speak to a dermatologist or atleast aesthetician to get an accurate answer for your exact skin type.

According to my Plastic Surgeon, it will work on raised and/or red scars. It does take a while. The package says to use for six to eight weeks. My surgeon said that I should wear the bandages for 20-24 hours a day for up to six months to receive the maximum benefit. I have used for four months on a large, hypertrophic scar and it has reduced the raised portion by half. The scar is still red, but that is to be expected for the first year.

Hi Barbara, I'm not sure if this will help the white scars it does improve the look of your skin and it absolutely does help with sun damage I'm not sure about the white scars I'm sorry

Yes, although I have currently been using if on a scar and it will soften it but not lighten it as the adult version does.

I don't think it will clear any scars/dark spots, but a cheap bleaching cream applied on the spots will help. I get mine from a local beauty supply store.

It will but it will not take all the black spots the first time u use it and if you decide to use it do not go out in the sun into your skin is completely heal !

I don't think it would work. You would have to put gauze under the tegaderm to cover the scar. It would protect the gauze from getting wet and the sun from going through the gauze. I use the dressing over a pain patch so I can go for water therapy. I am not in the sun with it on. If I were to go in the sun I believe I would need a gauze over my patch so the sun would not interfere with the medication.Hope this helps.

I haven't seen a difference. It does make your skin peel so it's probably doing something. I've given up on it as far as my face sun damage spots go and use it on my chest at night to see if it evens that area out. It's best to go to a Doctor to have laser to remove it. A procedure called Clear and Brilliant is very gentle and it gets rid of acne scars. :)

I apologize but your question is missing important information which is your current age, so that I can tell how many years ago you were 16 years old. Assuming you are now 40 that makes it 24 years ago which is very long and the scars are permanent and I don't think there will be any noticeable change after using this. Thanks Thanks

Good question - I wish I knew the answer. I use mine for my son's surgical scars. You might consult with your doctor to see what he/she thinks.

I have used the ScarAway Silicone for like five months and my scar looks much better, I don't know if it will work with keloid skin, but I would give it a try.
