Now, thanks to Mederma Advanced Scar Gel, the scar is barely noticeable and I'm so glad I tried this product. -- John R, TX I stepped in some ant spray my husband had spilled in our garage and broke both my legs just below the knees. My right leg required surgery and lots of hardware. My orthopedic surgeon did a great job, but ortho's are not known for their pretty work like plastic surgeons. I started using Mederma as soon as my incision was healed. I couldn't be happier with the results and I'm touting Mederma every opportunity I get. Thank you so much for creating such a great product. P.S. I'm walking!!! :) -- Pam R, TX
