Advanced Scar Gel — Reddit Reviews
by Mederma
Updated September 26, 2026
Onion-extract scar gel that fades redness and old marks with patience; inconsistent results.
What the community says
A scar gel with onion extract, allantoin, panthenol, and sodium hyaluronate that people usually start once skin is fully closed. It suits post-acne marks and old surgical or scratch scars; fresh raw wounds and impatient users are where it falls apart.
