Mederma Advanced Plus Scar Gel can help improve the appearance of scars, including those on the elbow, by moisturizing and softening the scar tissue. It contains ingredients that may reduce redness and make the scar less noticeable over time.

• Effectiveness: It works best on newer scars but can also help older scars to some extent.
• Application: Consistent daily use as directed is important for the best results.
• Limitations: It may not completely remove the scar but can improve its texture and color.

If your scar is from a recent accident and the skin has fully healed, using Mederma could be beneficial. However, if the scar is very old or raised (like a keloid), you might want to consult a dermatologist for other treatment options.

Remember to avoid applying the gel on broken skin and to follow the instructions on the package. If you notice any irritation, stop using it and seek medical advice.

For personalized care, consider consulting a dermatologist.
