Embrace Minimize for Old Scars, Medical-Grade Silicone Scar Sheets for Hypertrophic & Keloid Scars from Surgeries, Cuts & Injuries, 4.7 Inch, Large, 30-Day Supply

So....this stuff works. I have a pretty generous scar from back surgery (on my abdomen (anterior lumbar fusion). I used this for 10 days and could already see a difference! My only issue is that it is really tough to get it off! It made a red rashy-mark when I pulled it off (like a really strong bandaid). It stayed on through numerous showers, through gym sweat, and clothes rubbing on it. It does get tiny bubbles under the surface but they don't bother anything. Issues: they are tough to get off of the packaging- it is really difficult to tell which side goes on your skin because both sides are sticky (I realized after trail and error that the side facing the white paper goes on your skin). And, they are a bit pricy- there are only 3 in the box (though, they are generous sized so you can cut to fit scars). Overall, I like these. Will be buying more.

Was recommended by the dermatologist. It doesn't stay on the skin, always coming off.

I had a breast augmentation and my doctor highly recommended embrace. I purchased a box through him and thought I would buy a box on amazon. Doctors office charged around $95.00 and amazon was much cheaper. I used my first box that my doctor gave me and they worked great! I then applied the embrace strips from the box I purchased through amazon and was disappointed. The adhesion was not good. They ended up giving me a rash and I wondered if there was an expiry date on the strips and if maybe the box I received expired. Not sure if that was a thing but I was disappointed as they looked like the exact same box just one purchased for higher price did not give me the same quality as the box I received from amazon.

I had a lollipop breast reduction over a year ago. I had been using the scar away strips that had to be removed before bathing and/or working out which was annoying. I came across these and am SO GLAD I DID! I had been using the scar away strips for MONTHS. I did start to notice a change in my old scars. I purchased the embrace to give it a try to see if I would like them better. Boy am I glad I did. I purchased enough to last me a month and I must say it was a great decision. In most of the areas the scars are barely visible after using the embrace. I still have a few scar away strips so I will be using them but will DEFINITELY BE BUYING MORE OF THE EMBRACE IN THE FUTURE. They stayed on through daily showers (sometimes two a day) and during working out with no problems. They began to wrinkle which is to be expected but they stayed on for the ten days until I took them off and put on a new set. I was able to cut them to the size I needed with no problem. I highly recommend these!!!

Update - I prefer the Embrace for old scars for ease of application and comfort on non-flat areas. Pro hack is to buy the largest size (XL 4.7”), cut in half or to size so product won’t crease, completely remove from backing, and then apply. Be very weary of overstretching, the silicon will win and your skin will blister. The embrace for old scars is more flexible and comfortable than the product for new scars which makes it my 1st choice. I recommend Embrace with some warning to users. Beware of over-stretching which will result in blisters. Also, I had no problem with these lasting 10 days but they do begin to lift so that by day 10 they can be removed so don’t expect the whole strip to stay attached the entire 10 days. I have an anchor scar from a breast lift. My doctor recommended and uses this brand, although not for breast scars (more for tummy tuck). I decided to try these anyway after watching the the manufacturer how to video on their website. Breasts are challenging because of the shape and gravitational pull after application. The new scar product medium size worked wonderfully on the vertical scar line (I had zero issues there) but over stretching to apply the new scar XL along the fold line scar resulted in the skin being pulled at the corner, eventual blistering, and premature lifting of the adhesive. Either don’t bother or try the old scar product which is much cheaper but remove it entirely from the backing before applying to prevent stretching of the silicon strip. Even with the old scar product I got a blister from the strip being overstretched, the only thing you can do to prevent this is remove it from the backing prior to application so it doesn’t apply at a stretched point.

This is the best silicone scar product I’ve been able to find. I’m using on my new scars. If you follow the manufacturer instructions the products will last 10 days. You want to apply to clean dry skin. Also if you have sensitive skin do not stretch this tape before applying; stretching the tape will cause pulling and irritation. I had scar revision surgery 4 months ago. My initial surgery I really didn’t want to fork out the dollars and pay for Embrace. I actually tried it for short while and due to skin sensitivities and decided to use other products. I think I was looking for reasons to not have to spend so much money on this product. So instead I used other lesser expensive silicone sheeting products. My scars did not heal so nicely. This time around I’ve decided not to skimp. I’m 4 months post op and have been using Embrace for the last three months. My scars are barely visible.

The patches didn’t stay on for the ten days required. They started coming off at 5 days.

This is the second brand of silicone scar sheets that I have tried. Previously I used the ScarAway sheets, and after using these for only a few days, I will be continuing to buy these instead. Although I haven't had time to notice results, I'm rating these 5 stars because they actually stay on! The previous scar sheets I used were more expensive, had to be removed when showering, and always came off in my bed while I was sleeping. These, however, STAY ON!!! You don't have to remove them when you shower, and they really do adhere completely. I have been using my current one for 4 days now, and I have taken 3 showers and a bath with no problems at all. They are also large enough for me that I can use one sheet for three applications (I have a roughly nickel-sized hypertrophic scar/keloid). I will come back to update with my results after I have used them for the recommended time (8 weeks). So far I am very happy that these seem to actually stay on!! They are also less bulky than ScarAway.

Honestly the best on the market, my scars are quite bad and I’ve seen some improvement. First ones to actually stay on my skin for 10+ days, last a shower and give results

3 for $22 is expensive. But it is such a great silicone patch. It sticks well and I dont need to worry about it peeling off unlike other brands.

Was very unsure of this product due to bad reviews. My BA scared are 4 years old. Hence new surgery completely heeled. I have seen a drastic improvement in 10 days already . I am so excited to see final result.

This is the best one I've tries so far, and I have tried many. It has also been most effective of all the various types I've tried. I only wish it was a bit more affordable to buy more often, so I bought a bunch when they were discounted.

Pretty useless product Boxes arrived with the protection seal open/broken (is the product authentic?) The product peels off within 24 hours … appreciate they state this may not last a full week, but it’s very expensive for something that doesn’t last more than a day. Do not recommend
