Customer Reviews of Polysporin Ointment, 1-Ounce Tubes (Pack of 3)
Customer Review: Helps scarring
Summary: 5 Stars
These are the larger tubes of Polysporin which, for me, is a necessity. I've used this product for over 20 years after a dermatologist recommended it after removing a basil cell cancer from my skin. I had one taken off previously. The scar looked and still looks terrible. I used this after the second excising and the scar was minimal. It's still there, but very light and with age has almost disappeared.
It's an an antibiotic gel. Since switching to it, I've never developed an infection in the cuts and have used it on scrapes, burns, and small cuts, as well as deep cuts that required stitches.
Most importantly to me is that it doesn't hurt when it comes in contact with the wound. I keep a tube everywhere -- the bathrooms, the kitchen, my car, and my traveling kit.
Customer Review: Why this over the others?
Summary: 5 Stars
You must becareful using any topical ointment as they can cause a skin reaction. I did my dermatology rotation and they only ever advised vaseline because topical antibiotic ointments tend to have ingredients such as lanolin and/or mineral oil, substances noted to cause allergic skin reactions. Why I like this? Because the only inactive ingredient is white petroleum aka vaseline. No mineral oil or lanolin to be found. If you have sensitive also avoid balsam of peru.
