How to fade fresh, red surgical scar?

I just had a hypertrophic scar excised on my arm three weeks ago, and the new incision looks very red. Has anyone used
Mederma / silicone sheets (cica care / Mepiform) for their surgical scars? Please share detailed experiences:

- at what stage did you start using Mederma (how old was your scar?)

- for how long have you used Mederma / silicone sheet to start seeing an effect?

- how many times did you rub Mederma into your scar in one day?

- did you try any other methods (pulsed dye laser, KTP laser, retinoid, etc...), and please tell me the specific type of laser you used, how many treatments you've had, and after how many treatments did your scar start looking better

Thanks!!

My mother had a very large scar from the removal of melanoma on her hand...aggressive physical therapy and keeping the scar moist has really helped with its appearance.

At the same time she had a large chunk removed from her left leg for, again, melanoma. She used the silicon patches that you are referring to and she really thinks that they helped a lot with the scar (which is almost 7 inches long). I would try them!

Green Laser Pointer II $69.99 Okay, just about everyone has a red laser pointer. Heck, we even sell a fine one here at ThinkGeek. But, we're pretty sure you want to be a superior geek - and doing it with a green laser is the way to go. This pointer is significantly brighter (about 50 times) than a red laser pointer and because of its unusual color it is much more noticeable. I mean come on, a 532 nm green laser wavelength is obviously superior to a laughable 650 nm red laser wavelength. And unlike a red laser, the green beam itself can be seen in mid-air in dark conditions, not just the laser beam dot. This allows the green laser pointer to be used for pointing to star constellations (skypointing) and also just generally look cool as hell. The green laser beam dot can be seen at much greater distances than with a red laser pointer. Since green direct injection laser diodes aren't readily available, this pointer is based on the use of Diode Pumped Solid State Frequency Doubled (DPSSFD) laser technology. A high power IR laser diode at 808 nm pumps a tiny block of Nd:YVO4 generating light at 1,064 nm which feeds a KTP intracavity frequency doubler crystal to produce the green beam at 532 nm. Features of this unit include: Very bright green laser at 532 nm wavelength Output power of Range of approximately 9,000 ft (2600 m) in darkness 1.1 mm beam diameter at source Momentary push button switch Solid, heavy duty construction Constant wave output (as opposed to pulse output) Takes 2 "AAA" batteries (not included) Can be used for skypointing, projection on low clouds, signaling, highlighting potential explosives Dimensions: 5.6" x .5" dia 90-day warranty Available in Black or Silver color Interested in quantity discounts or custom logo imprinting?

Ways To Imrpove Your Health Using Therapy Lights

Bringing the sunshine indoors. That is how some people describe the benefits of therapy lights.  Scientists believe that simulated bright light has an effect on chemicals in your brain and your skin and can be used to help some conditions.  There are many different types of therapy lights so I'm going to described some of them and the disorders they can be used with:

Light boxes (Phototherapy or bright light therapy)

Many therapists have noticed that sitting near a simulated sunlight box can alleviate symptoms for some complaints. The strength of the light should be at least 2,500lux and daily exposure is required. Remember that a medical practitioner must prescribe the strength and type of light used as well as the duration of exposure.

SAD Lights

Otherwise known as Seasonal Affective Disorder or its mildest form 'Winter Blues'.  You don't have to be a genius to know that we all feel better during the long sunny days of summer. We seem to have more energy too. You lose some of that enthusiasm in the winter when there are not so many daylight hours. Some people get 'winter blues' which makes them feel lethargic and 'under the weather', with a tendency to overeat. For others this becomes severe enough it to disrupt their lives and cause a lot of upset.   It can also affect the way we behave.

The symptoms usually start at the beginning of the winter season and begin to get better when spring arrives in March and April.  It may not be necessary to use light SAD therapy daily during the winter months and advice from a trained professional is advised.

Jetlag and Sleep Disorders

Where the circadian rhythms or body clock of the brain have been affected by periods of sleep deprivation or extended night or daytime hours. Flying over time zones can have this effect. The light box can simulate the difference between waking hours and sleep or night time and helps to re-adjust the body and brain into rhythm quickly.

Alzheimer's and Dementia

A regular topic in many research papers on Alzheimer's Disease is the damage that happens to the part of the brain that controls the circadian rhythms.  The combination of damaged nerve pathways and poor eyesight as you get older can mean that indoor levels of light are not enough to identify the difference between daytime and night time.  Experiments using therapy lights and light boxes have found that they can help maintain Alzheimer sufferers' rest and activity cycles for longer.

UVB/UVA1 light

The same technology that is used for sunbeds in tanning shops can also help to ease stubborn patches of psoriasis, vitiligo, stretch marks and pale scars. The light must be focussed on the affected patch without unwanted exposure to normal skin.

Coloured-light therapy or Intense Pulsed Light

These types of therapy lights use filtered floodlights to bathe the skin in light of different colors.  Different color filters have proven better for different disorders:

Blue:  is used to destroy the bacteria that cause acne.
Green:  is used to treat pigment irregularities e.g. liver spots, age spots
Yellow:  for vascular conditions such as thread veins and rosacea.
Combination green and yellow:  smoothes away fine lines and wrinkles.
Red: has been found to be effective in the relief of headaches and, when concentrated in one area, for the relief of arthritic pain.

Low-level laser light (Ruby and KTP) therapy

Developed to help reduce patches of discoloured skin, such as birthmarks or moles. Laser light is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the skin causing it to break up in darker areas and help to make it look more normal.

The above two systems of therapy lights can be combined and used to remove areas where the person believes they have too much hair.
