Embrace Active Scar Defense for New Scars, FDA-Cleared Medical-Grade Silicone Scar Sheets for Hypertrophic & Keloid Scar Treatment, 4.7 Inch, Large, 60-Day Supply

Very poor quality

I found the pads a bit hard to place as you cannot see where you are placing them before they are on and you u can’t move them. There is a black line guide but as with my scar it is not in a straight line. They stick very well, and are super comfortable. Just started using them so will have to check back and review the outcome in three months

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!

Very poorly made product - spend a lot of money on it and it comes off immediately at application. Tried one by myself and it fell off immediately - then did 2 more with my plastic surgeon who’s direct quote was “these used to be better”. They came off right away and were useless - absolutely no chance for reuse or anything. Save yourself time and money buy any high rated silicon tape - same effect 1/10 the price. Item is a joke - I won’t ever bother trying to return it just in case my review is removed - I’d rather stop atleast one person from making the mistake of buying it.

Terrible. Have used before and not had any problems, but this one fell off in one day.
