The Mederma Advanced Scar Gel is a 0.7 oz/20 g, once-daily skin care product that helps reduce the appearance of old and new scars from surgery, injury, accident, burns, and acne. It uses allantoin 0.5% as the active ingredient, which acts as a skin protectant and helps keep the skin hydrated. The triple-action formula helps seal in moisture, aid the formation of collagen, and help renew skin cells to help reduce the visibility of scars.
Mederma Scar Gel can be used both on the face and body once a day to help reduce scars from stitches, pockmarks, ice pick scars, and more. It can also be used on new and old scars alike (new scars must be closed wounds without stitches).
Directions for Use
For best results, start using Mederma® Advanced Scar Gel as soon as your wound has closed and continue using daily for at least 8 weeks on new scars and 3-6 months on existing scars. Make sure the scab has come off naturally. Don’t use Mederma on stitches – wait until any stitches have been removed. When using Mederma on old scars, you may start using immediately. Do not apply to broken skin.

FAQs
Does Mederma Advanced Scar Gel work on atrophic scars?
Mederma Advanced Scar Gel can be used on atrophic scars such as acne and chicken pox scars. Mederma gel may help to smooth and soften the edges of the pox mark but it will not cause the indented area to fill in. By smoothing the edges, the mark may become less noticeable.
