Mederma Skin Care for Scars
Mederma is a "greaseless, pleasant-smelling, topical gel" that was formulated to aid in the healing of any type of scar, including stretch marks.
How Mederma Works
Unlike most other stretch mark creams, Mederma appears to be an agent made specifically for scar tissue resulting from surgery, a burn, stretch marks, an injury or acne. The active ingredient, Cepalin, "a proprietary botanical extract derived from onions," is supposed to reduce the appearance of scars.
Mederma is recommended by doctors and pharmacists for the treatment of all kinds of scars no matter how old or extensive.
