Embrace Active Scar Defense for New Tummy Tuck Scars, FDA-Cleared Extra-Large Silicone Scar Sheets, 30 Day Supply

Looking at other reviews: they probably aren’t applying it correctly. You have to read the instructions and follow them! My surgeon recommended this specific brand and they worked very well. Yes there was a little skin irritation. Most people seem to be sensitive to adhesives. I could leave mine on max 7 days due to the itching skin. It has very specific instructions that must be followed! Apply before bed, when you won’t be very active. Make sure the skin is clean and dry and clean the area with alcohol. Yes this burns but helps it stay longer! My scar is barely noticeable and I thank these scar dressings for that. I feel it also kept my incision from opening up because I was too active too soon after surgery.

NEGATIVE -x10,00 -stars! !!! ¡ ! W A R N I N G!!!!!!!DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!! DO NOT USE NEODYNE EMBRACE SCAR THERAPY PRODUCTS!!!! NEODYNE EMBRACE SCAR THERAPY GIVES SKIN SCARS!!! VERY PAINFUL!PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF & LOVED ONES FROM THE TRAUMATIC EFFECTS OF THESE PRODUCTS, IF USED SKIN WILL BE SCARRED FOR LIFE!!Unfortunately, I am living proof.I purchased these products in various sizes for post operative scar therapy, used carefully & applied with the supervision of an epidermis specialists assistance. I was able to live through the pain of wearing them on my skin for a little over a week, at which point I sought medical attention for the pinching, redness & various other skin issues directly related to the wearing of Embrace Scar Therapy by NEODYNE. I was advised to remove them promptly with care & as per the instructions on the products packaging. Even with slow careful consideration, warm water, oil etc. the EMBRACE SCAR THERAPY BY NEODYNE RIPPED THE SKIN OFF COMPLETELY LEAVING A BLOODY INCREDIBLY PAINFUL & HORRIFYING MESS for my skin, my overall health & especially my mental health. The intensity of ripping skin off down to the muscle was nearly unbearable!I am now 4 MONTHS post-op & the scars on my body from Embrace Scar Therapy by NEODYNE are FAR worse than the scars left from the surgery itself! Quite unfortunately I believed the online hype & ordered a non-returnable, non-refundable (& now, unused) 6 month supply of this garbage! Supply left after my trying a few strips is shown in photo.Please do not buy this product & advise your family & friends to save themselves the same deep disappointment I face looking at Embrace scars on my body everyday.

The trick to these things is knowing how to use them properly. It took me two whole sheets to figure it out. I used these for a long tummy tuck scar on my lower abdomen. At first I followed the directions and used an entire rectangle. The bandage did not stay on long and started peeling off around edges like other people said in their reviews. The first round lasted about 3 days. I thought, “Wow! That’s expensive and doesn’t last long but maybe if I alter how I’m using them and prep my skin more aggressively they’ll stay on longer.” So I did, and then they worked perfectly! I’m starting my 6th week of treatment and boy am I glad I stuck with it because my tt scar looks amazing! (Side note, I also used the little square embrace bandages for my new belly button which was starting to scar slightly around edges)So this is what I did to make it work for me. First I clean the area in the shower with straight up soap and water and rub with a wash cloth gently. Then when I get out of shower I don’t touch any lotions or oils and immediately use a thin, baby wash cloth and rubbing alcohol to clean the area where the bandage will go. Then I pluck any hairs I see that the silicon bandage may go over. Then I use rubbing alcohol again all over and even my hands before handling the bandages. I clean a pair of sharp scissors with the rubbing alcohol as well and use the scissors to then cut the large bandages in half lengthwise. I stand up straight and let my belly be relaxed. Next, I peel off one half and put on the middle part of my scar first, pulling it taught but not too much. Once I have it where I want I press down with my hand and rub along the strip and apply pressure all over it till it has completely adhered to my skin. Then I do it again on one side, overlapping slightly. Lastly, I cut another strip in half and only use one half to complete the coverage on the other side of my scar. So you’ll end up with two, 10 day treatments in one box for one very long tummy tuck scar. This process works so well I think the silicon bandages would actually stay on a lot longer than 10 days but I always peel them off on day 10 and let my skin breath for 12 to 24 hours. I also moisturize the area during that time as well. So basically these things are awesome if you figure out how to use them right! I guess it might be different for people with other types of scars but it worked for me and my tt scar! Good luck!

I'm giving this item 3 stars. The item didnt smell horrible at all. Very durable for the cost and easy to use. The size worked considerably well. It was so soft in fact thats my reason for thinking it would last longer than 3 days. The box stated 10 days it would last. Three days was the longest it stayed on my scar. I was so hopeful due to the cost of the item. I've tried so many scar products l was sure this would be my last.

Have been dealing with weeks of continuous blisters and holes that keep reforming after using this product over a course of a week. I have so much regret and may have to go to the doctors office. Be careful or void at all costs. I'm not really allergic or have sensitive to much. Not worth the risk, pain, suffering
