Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Arms as of July 30

Still happy I did it. But the scars spread as it got closer to my arm pit. I also did a few laser treatments. Some of the tightness after the surgery did not stay long-term and I didn't gain weight. It took a good three years for scars to fade - I used a scar coverup cream.

Covering scars

I am 2 1/2 months into my recovery. My scars are still healing and have that pink color to them. I bought Dermablend Leg and Body Buildable Liquid Foundation and it is AMAZING!!! I went to Macy's to get a color match and then just ended up ordering it on eBay as it was about half the price.

Embrace was not for me

I used Embrace Scar Therapy and followed the instructions very carefully. But it did damage to my skin by actually pulling it off! I had to see a doctor and put medicine on my arms twice a day for 10 days. I called Embrace and they are refunding me. I am now just using BioCorneum which is a silicone gel.
