Embrace Minimize for Old Scars, Medical-Grade Silicone Scar Sheets for Hypertrophic & Keloid Scars from Surgeries, Cuts & Injuries, 4.7 Inch, Large, 30-Day Supply

So....this stuff works. I have a pretty generous scar from back surgery (on my abdomen (anterior lumbar fusion). I used this for 10 days and could already see a difference! My only issue is that it is really tough to get it off! It made a red rashy-mark when I pulled it off (like a really strong bandaid). It stayed on through numerous showers, through gym sweat, and clothes rubbing on it. It does get tiny bubbles under the surface but they don't bother anything. Issues: they are tough to get off of the packaging- it is really difficult to tell which side goes on your skin because both sides are sticky (I realized after trail and error that the side facing the white paper goes on your skin). And, they are a bit pricy- there are only 3 in the box (though, they are generous sized so you can cut to fit scars). Overall, I like these. Will be buying more.

I had a breast augmentation and my doctor highly recommended embrace. I purchased a box through him and thought I would buy a box on amazon. Doctors office charged around $95.00 and amazon was much cheaper. I used my first box that my doctor gave me and they worked great! I then applied the embrace strips from the box I purchased through amazon and was disappointed. The adhesion was not good. They ended up giving me a rash and I wondered if there was an expiry date on the strips and if maybe the box I received expired. Not sure if that was a thing but I was disappointed as they looked like the exact same box just one purchased for higher price did not give me the same quality as the box I received from amazon.

I got a gash over a year ago that I probably should have gotten stitches for. Decided against it because of the cost and ended up with a nasty scar on my knee. It wasn't a huge deal but was happy to see a product that could deal with it. After just a few days I saw improvements on my knee. It probably says so in the directions, but I put it on the first time without shaving the area. It still stuck for days, but it was a pain to take off with my hair. Tried again after shaving and it was super easy and much more comfortable.

I was excited to use these, and like all people with scars we want miracles! This is not a miracle product. In fair, I purchased 2 months worth, but did not do full 2 month supply as instructed had unecessay time between use. I did see some fading, and sure results would have been better, if I followed instructions better and continued use. However, I then was told to use viks vapor rubs and saran wrap and I got better result in 5 days than I did with Embrace. In fair, everyone is different. Nothing bad to say, but not convinced its worth the money?

Update - I prefer the Embrace for old scars for ease of application and comfort on non-flat areas. Pro hack is to buy the largest size (XL 4.7”), cut in half or to size so product won’t crease, completely remove from backing, and then apply. Be very weary of overstretching, the silicon will win and your skin will blister. The embrace for old scars is more flexible and comfortable than the product for new scars which makes it my 1st choice. I recommend Embrace with some warning to users. Beware of over-stretching which will result in blisters. Also, I had no problem with these lasting 10 days but they do begin to lift so that by day 10 they can be removed so don’t expect the whole strip to stay attached the entire 10 days. I have an anchor scar from a breast lift. My doctor recommended and uses this brand, although not for breast scars (more for tummy tuck). I decided to try these anyway after watching the the manufacturer how to video on their website. Breasts are challenging because of the shape and gravitational pull after application. The new scar product medium size worked wonderfully on the vertical scar line (I had zero issues there) but over stretching to apply the new scar XL along the fold line scar resulted in the skin being pulled at the corner, eventual blistering, and premature lifting of the adhesive. Either don’t bother or try the old scar product which is much cheaper but remove it entirely from the backing before applying to prevent stretching of the silicon strip. Even with the old scar product I got a blister from the strip being overstretched, the only thing you can do to prevent this is remove it from the backing prior to application so it doesn’t apply at a stretched point.

I had a lollipop breast reduction over a year ago. I had been using the scar away strips that had to be removed before bathing and/or working out which was annoying. I came across these and am SO GLAD I DID! I had been using the scar away strips for MONTHS. I did start to notice a change in my old scars. I purchased the embrace to give it a try to see if I would like them better. Boy am I glad I did. I purchased enough to last me a month and I must say it was a great decision. In most of the areas the scars are barely visible after using the embrace. I still have a few scar away strips so I will be using them but will DEFINITELY BE BUYING MORE OF THE EMBRACE IN THE FUTURE. They stayed on through daily showers (sometimes two a day) and during working out with no problems. They began to wrinkle which is to be expected but they stayed on for the ten days until I took them off and put on a new set. I was able to cut them to the size I needed with no problem. I highly recommend these!!!

Buy the silicone tape. You get a lot more of the same stuff for the money. Plus- the tape is tinted so it hides scars as they heal. This stuff is thick and shiny. It stayed on for 1.5- 2 days before becoming flappy and attracting fuzz and dog hair onto the sticky side. For the $35 cost, I got 6 bandages the size of a XL bandaid with directions to cut to fit. When you cut it, be sure to round the corners so they don’t peel up & catch on your clothes. I’ve had this product for 2 days and I’ve already gone through 4 of my 6 dressings due to lack of adhesion after moving, showering, even sleeping! I was sticking to the bedsheets. What an expensive joke!!! I just ordered the silicone tape. You get 1.6 yards of the stuff for $15. Hopefully that will stick better. Thank you Amazon for a great Prime return policy. These last 2 stickers are going back!

Honestly the best on the market, my scars are quite bad and I’ve seen some improvement. First ones to actually stay on my skin for 10+ days, last a shower and give results

3 for $22 is expensive. But it is such a great silicone patch. It sticks well and I dont need to worry about it peeling off unlike other brands.

Was very unsure of this product due to bad reviews. My BA scared are 4 years old. Hence new surgery completely heeled. I have seen a drastic improvement in 10 days already . I am so excited to see final result.

Pretty useless product Boxes arrived with the protection seal open/broken (is the product authentic?) The product peels off within 24 hours … appreciate they state this may not last a full week, but it’s very expensive for something that doesn’t last more than a day. Do not recommend

Fell off in a few hours.
