When searching for Scar Treatment products, check the ingredients lists for Silicone/Dimethicone. This is the only ingredient documented to be effective on scars via scientific studies published in reputable medical journals. Other ingredients may be good for the skin, but when added to Scar Treatment products, they can actually decrease effectiveness.
About 4 years ago last March I had a knee replacement and my niece gave me some Scarfade and told me how great it was at making scars almost fade away. She was right. And then last September I had my other knee replaced, she gave me another tube in my get well package … I again used it. When I went back to see my Doctor for my 6 month visit after the surgery he said that it looked great and I should do an advertisement for Scarfade.
