Embrace Scar Therapy has been recommended, however, I'm not finding a lot of patient reviews on it. I'm reluctant to spend so much money on something that I'm not seeing a lot of reviews on.There are so many options, and I'm starting to feel overwhelmed. Silicone strips seem to be popular, as well as some other lotions. If these are good options, which ones are the best? I have a hip to hip c-section scar that healed alright,but there's no guarantee that I'll heal the same from this procedure.
Answer: Scar treatment for tummy tucks Embrace Scar therapy is clinically proven to decrease the tension on the scar and improve it's appearance. There is no other treatment that works better for a tummy tuck scar. It can cost several hundred dollars, but if you use it for the recommended two-three months, then you will have done all you can do to improve your scar.The reason you will not find a lot of patient reviews on this product is because it's relatively new. Most plastic surgeons don't even know about it or use it yet.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

CONTACT NOW Answer: Using Embrace Active Scar Defense for your TT Scar There are many factors that influence the final scar from a procedure. The most important factor that we can’t control is our DNA. However, tension is also a factor that can worsen scars. You might want to consider Embrace Active Scar Defense. Relieving the tension on the incision can decrease or prevent scar formation before it starts. You should consult with your board-certified plastic surgeon regarding this product. Unlike passive products that just sit on top of the scar and don’t have any clinical studies, Embrace is an active scar product with real clinical studies to back it up. Good luck on your scar therapy research!

Answer: The best scar treatment after abdominoplasty is to leave the incision alone. Outside of moisturizers the best management of a scar after surgery is to leave it alone. Scar creams don't work And massage should be avoided.

Answer: Scar Care While your body does a great job healing scars on its own, you can also help by keeping the scars out of the sun. Also, we usually recommend silicone sheeting and dermatix silicone gel. These two products have helped our patients improve the appearance of their scar nicely. The key is to use these products only after the wound has closed, and to apply them to clean skin. Best of luck!

Answer: Best Scar Therapy for Tummy Tuck - Embrace Scar Therapy By Far! Embrace Advanced Scar Therapy is given to all of my tummy tuck patients as part of the surgery price. I do this because it works! Embrace has been extensively studied in clinical trials which conclusively demostrated its superiority to other scar treatments in aesthetic surgeries. In my practice, we tried to use it for all procedures, but found it was not well tolerated in most breast surgeries. However, the results in tummy tucks, body lifts, arm lifts and thigh lifts are amazing.Embrace pads are silicone gel pads that are loaded under tension. Think of it as silicone sheeting on steroids. The added benefit of the tension in the pad, takes tension off the scar, thus making the scar heal better. Silicone gel has long been shown to be effective in scar management and minimization. The Embrace pads take that one step further by relieving tension off the scar. This is proven by all of the happy patients that myself and other early adopters of Embrace have seen over the past few years since its release.… SHOW MORE
