Does actifade or scarguard gel works for african-american people?

I am part African American and I had an C-Section scar and with black pigmented skin we tend to keloid (scar raises). Scarguard worked O.K. for me, the scar never went completly away. It made the scar flatter and lighter. So, I am a little more confidant. Also, look into "Mederma".

I have the same thing. I found that scar gel is very helpful. You can find it any pharmacy. Apply it for 2 months (or follow the instructions). They shoud disappear in time.

Banana Boat vitamin E gel works wonders! I've used it many times.

There is a great product by Mary Kay called Visibly Fit body lotion.  It has amazing results for stretch marks, scars, and spider veins.  Lotion is for use 2x a day.  It lasts for about ten hours.  You should see results in a few weeks.

I had this a while back. My father is a pharmacist and recommended eating bananas and rubbing almond oil on my calves. May sound crazy, but it worked!

coco butter is the "standard" strech mark cure.  Some of the scare remover creams work much better though.

I have tried cocoa butter and this scar zone formula or whatever it is and the only thing that worked is tanning them (or using self tanner) and then they weren't as obvious.

A product called Scarguard is pretty good.  A lot of hospitals and plastic surgeons recommend it.  It's a little expensive but thats  small price to pay for a scar or being confident that the scar isn't noticable and you look a certain way.

There are a couple of options:\n\n1) Astro-Glide. This product is used mostly by runners. It works ok. \n\n2) Gold-Bond. This is my product of choice. There are two types: Medicated (Yellow Bottle) and Extra Medicated (Green Bottle). \n\nThis powder has no smell (like baby powder) and it works great. If you get chaffed, throw some of this powder down there and you will be healed.

Hi I am also a black woman who had this problem. I use Palmers   Cocoa butter after I shower and notice that the stretch marks seem to lighted up and smooth out.I only buy the solid kind not the creamy version because this has shea butter in it which will also help the dark stretch marks to lighten up. Futhermore, don't be stingy when applying if you do this consistently for about a month trust me you will notice a gradual change. Also you will notice that as the stretch marks get older the will naturally start to blend in with your skin. In conclusion, please remember that it is unhealthy to gain weight and lose it so frequently try to keep your weight balanced out. Good Luck!

I though it was working great ... my "Ex" was a freak on the nature stuff ... he was really old, and used lots of products ... anyways, he went to Asia, came back all wrinkly ... I don't know if he stopped using the D.M.A.E stuff or if it stopped working ... but check out Dr. Perricone ... this person who is an expert on the stuff ...

Sit up of course... Maybe you can buy "hot" gel to put on your tummy. I never use it but I heard it works. Usually only one application is enough each day and it works 24 hours.
