Can you use this on a scar that is years old?

Yes, although I have currently been using if on a scar and it will soften it but not lighten it as the adult version does.

I believe so. There is myscaraway.com that has all the answers and you can call them for more information. My scar is new only since December 2013. Helped reduce pain and discomfort and flattened out the scar which is nice. Go to the source though.

I don't know. It did nothing for my 11-12 year old appendectomy scar, which was and still is hardly noticeable.

I used the product on a small facial scar next to my nose. Used the product on a small facial incision next to my nose. Had some bad cells removed. Healing was really remarkable for me. I have read reports from others (Amazon) that it has assisted others on older scars as well. I do know the product tends to smooth things out. While expensive, it was a good purchase. I cant attest to whether it will work for you as I'm not a medical professional and I do not know the extent of the damage as it applies to your situation. I would seek advice of a Dermatologist or your family physician.

I wish I could answer that, but I haven't used it for scars...I will NOW though!

Honestly I dont think this will have much use for tattoo scar fading. This is for more minor scars.

I would check with a dermatologist. You may have to have the old scar removed and work on the new scar. It's worth checking into.

There is no medicine in the strips. The silicone uses your bodies heat source to heal and soften the scars naturally. You must be consistent when beginning the treatment. Depending on the scar it can take up to 3 months to begin to see results. It's definitely one of the top products to use for scars and burns. I stand by it vet securely. It's amazing.

All the product states is that it will work on old scars, but no mention is made in regard to acne scars

It works well to remove warts or skin tags or small moles. However, after using the product a red blister about the size of a dime will result. The blister heals within 7 to 10 days, but a red mark can remain for weeks. I have used this product over several years and it has never left a permanent scar, but you will definitely have a red mark for 4 to 6 weeks. It's up to you if you want that on your face. Good Luck

Yes I have a key loud scar and they have flattened and lightened my scar. It also helps the itching and burning.

Absolutely!!!I have successfully used it on moles, skin tags, and even a wart.Please be aware that if it is a large mole, you may need to do the process more than once. I had a decent sized mole and after the first set of treatment, part of it came off and then in was a small mole. LolSo I repeated the process and the remaining mole came off.Understand that this process is very slow, just as it would be if you had them frozen off at the dermatologist. It takes several weeks and will scar. The scar will remain for several months, but WILL eventually fade away.

Yes, but be careful using the iron too close to your face, it will leave permanent burn scars.

Yes, it can be used for acne scars as long as they are not an "active" pimple.

I have used the ScarAway Silicone for like five months and my scar looks much better, I don't know if it will work with keloid skin, but I would give it a try.

It seems to work best on fresh scars. Since veins are underneath the skin, I am not sure this product would be effective.

In my case, it doesn't work very well on decreasing the redness of the scar. I have been using it for 4 months now. All that I can say is it works to stop the scar from spreading out, and softens it as well. However, to minimize the scar would take a rather long time (imo). The bottle would last me another 5 months, and I hope I could see some distinct results.
