After a visit to the
doctor last year I was required to have a mole on my shoulder removed and since
then I have been using this Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Scar Serum to help
with the small scar I have been left with.
I have to admit
scarring was not a worry for me at the time I had the mole removed but after
the area unfortunately got infected I was left with a keloid scar tissue which
is raised, painful, red/pink in colour and can be quite dry. It was actually
the nurse at my local doctor’s surgery that suggested this stuff to me and I
thought it would be worth giving a try to ease the uncomfortable feelings that
I was having.

| Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Scar Serum |
The Palmers Scar
Serum has high levels of vitamin E and Cocoa butter which help with the
appearance and feel of scars and stretchmarks and promises to keep the skin
moisturised whilst strengthening your skin cell functions.
The consistency and
smell of this product isn't the nicest but it does leave the skin feeling
really moisturised and relieves the tight feeling I often get with my scar. I
usually apply this after my shower in the morning and also if I remember before
bed. I have been using this now for about 10 months and although I wouldn't say
it has been a miracle cure for the appearance of the scar it has definitely
helped with the overall feeling.
I picked this Palmers
Scar Serum up from Boots for £9.99 but having had a look on Amazon you can pick
it up for as cheap as £4.99 Click Here.
What products do you
use if you suffer from scarring? Are there any you would recommend I try?

I Never heard of this product. I use Bio Oil on my scars,don't know if you know that? Its totally natural and doesn't smell weird. It really helps a lot and is also good against stretch marks :)

I've never used this but I do use Bio Oil like Melane above. I had major ankle surgery and found it to be pretty amazing! The scar is about 8 inches long up the side of my foot and leg and although it's still there, Bio Oil has helped so much to make it less noticeable!

I have keloid scarring where I had my ears pierced (I can't get my ears pierced again) so I'm always trying to find things to make it look better. This sounds great, I have tried one of the Palmers ones but it had a lovely chocolate smell to it unlike the one you mentioned. I have used bio-oil in the past which is great and I've recently purchased something from avon which is said to reduce scars!

ReplyDeleteI actually didn't know that these types of products existed. I have so many huge scars on my knees and legs from being carless (falling off bikes and running in flip flops) and would love to get rid of them. Thank you for this review!
love your blog. biffsquiggled
100% true, all palmers products are just fab. I believe, Palmers has changed lives of people in terms of how they feel towards their body.
