What nutrition+fitness items would you like to see reviewed? They can be diets, supplements, food or beverage items, even exercise plans or classes!
The winner of today’s sponsored giveaway will receive a free twin-pack of Mederma: Patented Healing for Scars ($32 value)! The secret behind Mederma is its patented onion bulb extract. In a 2002 research study in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery,
onion bulb extract-treated scars on rabbit ears showed a statistically significant improvement in dermal collagen organization in comparison to scars that were not treated (p < 0.05). The authors of the study proposed that improved dermal collagen organization could have an effect on hypertrophic scar formation, i.e., potentially reducing the formation or degree of raised scars.
Another study demonstrated Mederma did not have better effects on preventing new scars than petrolatum-based Aquaphor (Dermatologic Surgery, 2006). The research is limited, but I am proud to sponsor a giveaway with Mederma due to personal experience. I have used Mederma with silicone scar healing pads on my own raised scars, and noticed a 30-40 percent improvement in the scar’s color and size over the course of a month. I’m a fan, and I’m happy to give these away to my readers!
One winner will be selected at 11:59 PM EST. Contest is subject to FutureDerm.com official policies.
