Suggest Remedy For Dark Scar Marks On The Body

I have dark scar marks on various places on my body, none of which are raised. I am interested in using a silicone based scar removal gel, but I can’t decide which one. I am considering using the following: Meladerm, Scar Estetique, Kelo-Cote, & Dermatix Ultra, but I don’t know enough about any of these products to make a decision. Of the 4 listed, which is more effective for removing dark marks from scars? And why? Are there any other scar removal gels/creams that you would recommend over the 4 listed above? And why?

Hello,

I have gone through your complaints and would recommend you to apply contratibex gel on the hypertrophic scar twice daily. On personal experience, I have found it most effective cream for reducing raised scars.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
