Customer Reviews of Molnlycke Mepiform Self-adherent Silicone Dressing 4" x 7", Single Sheet
Customer Review: Best all around scar pad I've tried, aesthetically best by far.
Summary: 5 Stars
I've tried these Mepiform pads, the Cica Care pads, and the Scar Away pads on my facial scar on a curvy part of my face. Because of the curviness and oiliness of my skin, I have trouble getting pads to stick for a whole day. The mepiform pads are aesthetically best because they are thinnest, the color matches my slightly tanned caucasian skin best, and the cut edges are neat. The scar away pads on the other hand have a shiny fabric texture that looks unnatural, are thicker, don't conform as well to the skin, and don't stick as well. Definitely go with the Mepiform pads over Scar Away, unless you really need to save money.
But when I'm doing active things that will make me sweat, the Mepiform pads don't stay on reliably so I use Band Aid Active Healing hydrocolloid pads instead (not made for scar treatment, but I think they have the same moisturizing effect that improves scar healing, and they hide the scar well). The Band aid products stick the best of any product I've tried, even when I sweat, but they are not as breathable so my skin gets irritated wearing them long term.
The cica care pads also stick much better than the mepiform pads, so I use them when I'm at home. They conform much better to curvy body parts, and I think the gel pulls up sunken scars better. But the Mepiform moisturize a bit more than Cica Care, which probably prevents keloids better.
With all these pads be aware that how the retailer stores them is important; I ordered my mepiform pads from a different online retailer and they sent me a sheet that already had big air bubbles underneath, and which didn't stick well. Another pad from the same warehouse had the same issue. But finally they sent me a mepiform pad from the same lot but from a different warehouse, and it had good sticky adhesive. I suspect the one warehouse either stored them too long or too hot.
Overall if you're going to use just one scar pad for all situations, I'd go with the Mepiform, which is also probably best for reducing keloids. The Cica Care pads last longer, stick longer, and may raise sunken scars better, but are more prone to being knocked off when something brushes up against them, and they are ugly. I use the Mepiform pads when I'm in public, and the Cica Care pads when I'm at home.
