Our dermatologists recommend to always patch test before using this product for the first time. Learn more here.

Studies show that allantoin works as an anti-inflammatory for chronic wounds. This is due to its antioxidant, antimicrobial, and keratolytic properties. It also helps build new skin cells as well as soothing itching and burning sensations. Allicin Dr. Brazzo says that the actual form of the treatment you choose isn’t that important (aside from choosing the right product for the right body part). Board-certified cosmetic and medical dermatologist Blair Murphy-Rose adds, "More important than the vehicle is the ingredients in a formulation." She explains, "Some serums will be more effective than others. And some serums will be more (and others less) effective than some gels or creams for example."The cream also contains other exfoliants and ingredients, such as onion bulb extract, to support the skin and prevent dryness.

We tested the Aroamas Scar Professional Silicone Scar Sheets on a four-year-old scar on our face where the skin was damaged enough to prohibit hair growth in that area. While it was a little awkward to cut the sheets down to the appropriate size for a facial scar (and we couldn’t leave the sheets on 24/7, as recommended) we were still impressed with the results we saw. WHEN SHOULD I START USING 1% RETINOL?If you have sensitive skin or have never used Retinol before, we recommend starting with our Retinol Serum instead. Our Scar Mark and Wrinkle Solution with 1% Retinol has been formulated for people who have marks in the form of post-acne scars, dark discolouration or deep wrinkles which give the appearance of uneven texture and tone. This product should only be used if you are experiencing these concerns and have previously used a Retinol product. Research shows that aloe vera promotes wound healing by increasing the amount of collagen in wounds. Additionally, as aloe vera consists of 99% water, it can increase skin flexibility and reduce its fragility. Chamomile Salicylic acid is the most common BHA used in acne scar serums and is oil-soluble. Unlike AHAs, BHAs can actually exfoliate inside the pores, so they’re a very effective treatment for acne, as well as acne scarring. They’re suitable for all skin types except the most sensitive.CAN I USE THIS LONG TERM?For best results, we recommend to use this product for a minimum of 3 months. Once you have seen an improvement in the appearance of your skin, you can reduce application to maintain results. It’s pretty rare to reach adulthood without a scar, and many of us continue to collect battle scars over the years. Injuries, surgery and skin problems leave shiny lines, dents and lumps in our skin, while scars such as stretch marks and dark spots are an almost inevitable part of ageing. You may assume that all these scars are permanent, but the best scar creams and gels can fade and shrink them, including the scars you’ve had for years. Onion bulb extract deactivates most forms of bacteria, thus decreasing inflammation on the skin’s surface due to scarring. Its antibacterial properties also help to heal and prevent acne breakouts on the skin. Additionally, it may improve blood microcirculation and lessen redness as well as act as a skin softener. Zhiyong L, et al. (2019). Rosehip oil promotes excisional wound healing by accelerating the phenotypic transition of macrophages. Boxcar scars are similar to rolling scars in that they’re wide but shallow depressions in the skin, but their edges have a sharp, steep appearance, so they’re well-defined. Boxcar scars typically occur after inflammatory acne.

At first, many scars will be raised above the skin but some will flatten out over time, creating a flat scar that often blends in with the color of your skin. People often don’t feel the need to treat these scars since they are already flush with their skin, but if you want your scar to blend in better with your skin color, a treatment containing allantoin or onion extract may affect the pigmentation of your scar. Stretch Marks Mederma Advanced Scar Gel is one of the most popular and effective all-around treatments for various scars. Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) are often used in acne scar serums because they are powerful chemical exfoliators that can remove dead surface cells to smooth and brighten the skin.When a large area of skin is damaged and has to join together again in the healing process, it can create a scar that not only feels tight but can cause problems with your muscles and tendons. These scars often require surgical intervention, so you should see a dermatologist if you’re interested in treating a contracture scar. Ingredients Silicone WHAT CAN I LAYER WITH THIS PRODUCT?Scar, Mark and Wrinkle Solution with 1% Retinol will pair nicely with our Hyaluronic Acid Serum and a moisturiser suitable for your skin type. We do not recommend using Retinol and AHAs (Glycolic Acid, Mandelic Acid, Apple Cider Vinegar), BHAs (Beta Hydroxy Acid or C-50 Blemish Acid Treatment) or PHA Toner at the same time as this can lead over exfoliation and sensitised skin, so alternate and use on different nights. Avoid mixing Vitamin C products at the same time (use Vitamin C AM and Retinol PM). Panthenol, or vitamin B5, is a substance that comes from pantothenic acid. Cosmetic companies use panthenol in skin care products due to its moisturizing, soothing, and anti-inflammatory properties. These properties also make panthenol good for wound healing and for treating minor skin injuries such as minor burns and sunburn. IS IT SUITABLE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN? We do not recommend this product if you have sensitive skin or have never used Retinol before. We would recommend starting with our Retinol Serum instead.
