I remember being prescribed with contractubex for my surgical scars.  Siguro if it's just marks, you can use whitening creams nalang from dermatologist?

[starf1sh]

Has anyone tried Glyderm or Bio-oil ? I always see their tv ads. I wanna try but I have to choose one ü

[mango_shake]

sis backread ka. parang may nagmention na before ng bio-oil.

[AussieMom]

Is contractubex safe to be applied to almost entire face?  Dami kase acne scars ng pre-teen boy ko.  Can this fade the red marks and pimple marks kahit yung mga bumps?

hi mga sis, newbie here. i have this scar sa tuhod. kakulay sya ng skin ko pero nakaumbok siya tapos pahaba. sabi ng aesthetician na nagfacial sakin dati hypertropic scar daw siya. hindi daw pwede galawin kasi baka maging active and maging keloid. ano kaya effective na pamahid para matanggal to?

anyone tried clearascar?  feedback please.  tia.

We tried clearascar, after  2 - 3 weeks medyo nawawala un scar ( 2 in. scratch mark/line sa neck) but  what remained was a darker shade.. (Maybe mawawala rim eventually or might need whitening cream. Ü

For keloids/raised scars, contractubex works. Not sure if it works for old scars.

I use use palmers skin therapy oil. Pretty much like bio-oil but I like it better. Masmabango and light lang, bio-oil is denser. I also used to use shea butter along the palmers and maganda for dark marks or scars.

try cicacare silicone gel by smith and nephew. not sure if available in the phils though. i work in a medical distribution company and this product is very popular.

hm skinmate sharksoil? i have a super sensitive skin and i think my son has it too. yung mga insect bites niya nangingitim din. what can i use para sa baby, he is 4 months pa lang

[tischarmedlife]

^ sis, around Php 100+ lang yun Skinmate Shark oil. Although I wont advise na gamitin mo din to sa baby mo

[aquamomma]

thanks sis..hindi ko gagamitin sa kanya, mukhang mag fade pa naman yung peklat niya

I have scars din sa knees ko pero medyo light lang and I have a keloid scar din sa legs nung natumba ko sa bike.. nagkakeloid siya.. kaya simula nun hindi na ko confident magshorts.. I wear shorts lang pag gabi or pag may dalang car.. pero in broad daylight and sa mall never.. hehe nahihiya ko kahit sinasabi nila na ok lang naman daw hindi halata.

Pero ang prob ko talaga is yung small dots sa legs and arms ko because of KP (keratosis pilaris).. I consulted a derna before sa Obagi.. according to her yung sa keloid ko steroid injection daw, baka mga 3 sessions baka magflat siya depende sa size ng scars .

And dun naman sa maliliit na scars magpapeel daw ako, i forgot the name parang blue peeling ata yun.. papuputiin niya daw ako ng bonggang bongga hanggang magpantay yung scars sa skintone..para hindi na daw halata..
Hindi ko tinuloy kasi namamahalan ako 7,500 for arms lang and 9k ata yun for legs.. and I have to do it every 2 weeks..

[mango_shake]

try cicacare silicone gel by smith and nephew. not sure if available in the phils though. i work in a medical distribution company and this product is very popular.

pwede ba to sa old scar?

[catwoman]

I'm trying out Dermatrix Ultra for my small keloidal scar sa thigh..Hopefully it works. I'll post a feedback after a week or so of continued use.

[nicoletta]

^ Goodluck!  Parang not much difference with my own keloid.

[mango_shake]

my sis gave me a scar gel.. i googled it and medyo pricey so i won't mention the brand muna.. i'll share it with you pag proven na effective nga siya.. 

[rics]

^according to the website of cicacare - works on scars that are even 20yrs

"quote from EverydayChristmas:
nanay earth flowers and the bees lotion
nanay earth ego soap
nanay earth goat's milk soap
nanay earth chocolate truffle scrub

use all these araw-araw, your scars will seriously diminish! truly products that work.
suki ako ng nanay earth, gusto ko lang mashare ang kagandahan ng product nila
so happy."
ask ko lang po saan nabibili yung nanay earth products? effective po ba talaga? im so desperate din kasi sa old scars ko.

naku ako madami akong scar sa legs - kagat ng lamok at mga sugat nung childhood. Dati nahihiya pa kong magskirt or magshort. Dami ko na ginamit na skin whitening para maglighten sila. Ang problem ko mas pumuputi [textspeak!] scar kesa sa legs, mukha tuloy akong may an an. NagTCA peel na din pero visible pa din sila. Actually dumating nako sa point na acceptance  . Keber na lang kung ano sabihin ng iba. Nagsusuot ako lagi ng dress or skirt sa office at short pag lumalabas.

[ellabear]

same tayo sis vainmode ganyan din legs ko. i dont know pero skin asthma ata sakin kaya madalas ako mangati. until now wala pa din ako makita na makakatanggal ng scars ko
