I need something to protect a neck scar in the sun that won't cause additional burnings when it gets hot. Is this safe?

I wouldn't recommend this because it is like a clear "see-through" tape that just covers any cuts or any injury and protects it mostly from water or any other liquids. I would put a gauze and put tape around it instead. Hope u heal and hope this helps!

I am honestly unsure. I do not want to give you any wrong information. Its a pretty thick dressing so I would assume you would be ok from the sun if you wore this. Thank you.

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.

There is an aloe vera gel that can help dissolve the scar over 2 years time.if your next is washed 3x a day and the gel is replaced 2x.You can them,spray it with hexachlophene spray to seal it over at the beach,but,unless you are an active salt water swimmer,the scar would dissappear,faster at the side of a pool with non-chlorinated water as they have,for children in many urban areas,

It only has an SPF of 4 so if you burn at all, you will definitely need sunscreen.

I am not sure of the response you are looking for when you say burnt.Are you working outdoors in the sun or at a industrial site with sparks flying.Just being general if you are looking for protection from the sun ,yes it will provide that....

We use this on gourds that have pen drawings on them. I don't believe it has any real UV protection so protecting from sunlight will still be important. The colors have stayed true for 1.5 years.

No. We used it in San Diego, and it was perfect. I used it under my makeup, and my daughter used it AS makeup. Not a single sunburn even after kayaking for a few hours.

I don't believe so. I use a tattoo sunscreen stick over mine to keep them safe

not really used for that area.use it for a neck surgery, the scar effectively reduced to 90%I have no idea that works for that purpose you need to

I do not keep anything that might melt on top of it. It does get quit warm to the touch but not so hot that it could possibly causes your skin to burn.

It will provide partial sun protection but I would recommend a thicker material if fading is an issue. Light color helps with heat reflection

I use this around my neck and over the top of my clothes with no problem. Just be careful you don't heat it to long it can burn you and leave marks. I find for me 2minutes 20 seconds works well. We've used these for several years.

Yes it is good for all day sun protection. I was on a boat all day, in the Caribbean, in the sun, and it protects the skin from it. I started to show a farmers tan at the end of the day.

This product placed a second degree burn on my skin and a scar that will be there for life. It will do serious damage to your skin that will require medical attention.

Pretty sure that there is no sunblock in this. It seems to be mostly a moisturizer. I expect, just using this, you would get a sunburn if you were not already tan.

This is not thermal, it is intended to protect from dangerous UVF sun exposure. Add thermal to your (swim) garment search and that will keep you warm.

Agreed. If burn or damage is a concern, yes, put on a layer of sunscreen before you apply the Bain De Soliel. It's worth it! The aroma and feel of this stuff is totally luxurious. It makes time lounging by the pool or on the beach even nicer.

I would. A lightweight moisturizer with SPF to help prevent UV damage is best.

After using it once, I didn't use it anymore because it caused my face and neck to be red and painful. It was as if I had a very bad sunburn. I have sensitive skin so this is definitely not the product for me.
