Product Information

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). One 2016 study that looked at the impact of manuka honey on scars found that while honey has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, it didn’t make a difference in scar appearance when applied topically.

Derma E Scar Gel: We liked the ease of application with this gel, but the lavender scent was overpowering and the small amount you get for the cost seemed a little unreasonable since it didn’t have a hugely noticeable effect on our scars. In one 2019 review that looked at 23 trials, researchers concluded that aloe vera can improve wound healing and can help with scars when used alongside other methods. Thamboo A, et al. (2016). Objective and subjective scar aesthetics with topical manuka honey post-thyroidectomy: A randomized control study.One 2014 study attributed this to the succinic acid present in ACV. Succinic acid can control inflammation caused by acne, which in turn may prevent scars from forming. In fact, we think the wand is one of the pieces that makes this kit stand out from other gel-based or sheet-style products. It’s designed to break up scar tissue, and we could feel it painlessly doing just that when we used it. For people with newer scars or scars that cover a larger surface area, we think this treatment trio could be worth the investment.

Dr. Brazzo says allantoin can hydrate the skin, soften keratin, and promote healing. You might also see hyaluronic acid in some scar treatments for the same reason. Allantoin and hyaluronic acid together stimulate collagen production, notes Dr. Brazzo, which restores the skin’s natural architecture and leads to smoother skin with normal elasticity and color. Han X, et al. (2017). Biological activities of frankincense essential oil in human dermal fibroblasts. The scientific evidence around vitamin E and scars is inconclusive. Research on how vitamin E can treat acne and heal its scars is inconclusive. One 2019 study confirmed that rosehip oil significantly promoted wound healing and effectively improved scars. In a 2016 study, researchers concluded that there isn’t enough evidence that topical vitamin E has a significant beneficial effect on scars to justify its widespread use. They noted the need for more high quality studies.One 2016 study on rats found that the surface area of wounds topically treated with lavender oil was significantly decreased when compared with that of the control group. Chemical sunscreen: Dr. Palm says chemical sunscreens (such as oxybenzone or avobenzone) can cause a reaction, so if possible, choose an SPF product with physical sunscreen ingredients like titanium dioxide. Lei Z, et al. (2019). Rosehip oil promotes excisional wound healing by accelerating the phenotypic transition of macrophages.
