"I used this Mederma for my old scar, and then after 1 day, I noticed itchiness and peeling of the skin in the area, so I thought it's normal. On the third day, I stopped using this cream. It's a nightmare! Instead of removing my scar, this Mederma only makes it worse."

"I seem to be the rare exception, but I used Mederma for approximately five days, and by day five, I had a golf ball-size round area that looks like millions of raised, angry red bumps. They are very rough to the touch, and so far, after stopping all product application, have not reduced in size, but the redness is more of a bright pink now."

"This gave me an extreme allergic reaction over my entire body. Within three days, my feet were blood red, extremely itchy, hot, and uncomfortable. Finally, I had to go to the emergency room. Treatment was only for my left foot, however, both feet, both legs, my entire stomach, my mouth, and lips are swollen. Inside my nose is scabbed. Still itching deep into my palms and cannot stop clawing my palms. I have discontinued for 5 days now and am still itching! I still look like a burn victim with an extensive rash. My doctor did not recommend I place Mederma on moist skin. He also tried to push this off on a new soap? New food? What the heck!"

"I have been using Mederma since 2009 for my previous surgeries. It made all my scars disappear, and I also noticed my skin got a little lighter and faded with my complexion. I love it… Thank you to the maker. ❤️"

"I have used Mederma Advance Gel and the Night Cream for two days and have experienced numbness on one side of my face and itching. My body became very hot and sweaty, and my throat feels sore. I am not sure what I should do."

"I used this for a Facial scar from curling iron burn. First time I used it face turned all red but wasn't sure it was the cause. So waited about 2 weeks and tried again. The reaction was so much worse. Face bright red and burning. Next morning swelling on that side of face. Day later all the skin started peeling. Never had one but would explain like an acid peel. Face peeled for more than a week. Into the trash."

"I use this cream for the last 2 months, but I can't see any results on my cut on my forehead. So please give me some suggestions, Mederma team, because I wasted my 900 rs on it. So please help me."

"I have been using it for almost two weeks and it started burning. I thought it was healing but the pain has not stopped. I am scared to use it now."
