Mederma Advanced Plus Scar Gel is generally considered safe for use in children, but it is important to follow certain precautions:

• Age Consideration: It is typically recommended for use in children over 2 years old. For younger children, consult a pediatrician before use.

• Application: Apply a thin layer to the scar area as directed on the product label or by a healthcare provider.

• Allergic Reactions: Watch for any signs of skin irritation or allergic reaction, such as redness, itching, or rash. If these occur, discontinue use and seek medical advice.

• Consult Healthcare Provider: Always check with your child's doctor before starting any new topical treatment, especially if the child has sensitive skin or other skin conditions.

In summary, while Mederma Advanced Plus Scar Gel can be used safely in children above a certain age, professional guidance ensures the best and safest outcome for your child’s skin healing. It is advisable to consult a pediatric dermatologist for personalized advice.
