Mepitac 298300 Soft Silicone Tape, 2 cm x 3 /0.8 in x 3.3 yd

This stuff works great! After reading the reviews for scar away and seeing this product in the recommendation bar, I decided to take a chance on this tape. After a breast augmentation and tummy tuck my surgeon gave me scar away sheets. I decided to put the scar away on my tummy scars and the mepitac on my breast scars. The mepitac tape is much thinner but sill has a layer of silicone. The mepitac tape also sticks better and is easier to cut to size since it comes on a roll. One box of scar away barely covered my tummy scars but I still have a significant amount of mepitac left on the roll at half the price. The mepitac stayed on and didn't fail through scar and implant massage for 2 days while the scar away rolled up and kept coming off or sticking to my clothing. I read all of the instructions and ended up using medical tape to stick the scar away in place. Today before my shower I took off both tapes and lined them up on the counter as many reviewers had recommended. I even used water to rinse off any gross stuff from the silicone sticky surface and left it to dry while I showered. After the shower the tape stuck right back on no problem. I used a cotton ball to smooth it down and remove any excess moisture left over from rinsing it. The scar away tape had to be taped down at the seams with medical tape because I didn't have the same faith it would stay put after two days of pushing it down. The biggest difference was in my scars! The scars under the scar away tape looked unchanged after two days while the scars under the mepitac tape were visibly flattened! I used no oil or scar treatment cream other then a very thin layer of polysporin. I'm 14 days post op so my scars are very new! This was all I needed to know to buy two more rolls of mepitac and know it will be great for the rest of my recovery. I can't wait to show my surgeon the difference in both scars at my appointment in a few days. Highly recommend this product!

Works like a charm! After only 3 uses my scars are diminishing.

This is the best stuff to use if you have to tape an incision! It does not hurt to peel off. My skin is very sensitive but this tape is gold and does not hurt! Highly recommend!

I used this tape after an abdominalplasty and it is absolutely amazing!! Stays on, skin colored and helped with hardly any scarring!

This is the best option for using silicone to help wound healing! I am highly prone to skin cancers and have had many removed. My dermatologist recommended that I purchase a silicone gel (that he has for sale in his office) but the gel was very expensive. I told the doctor that I can't afford the gel. So I came home and went online to see if I could find the silicone gel at a lower price. Alas, I could not. It's all unaffordable for me. I was reading a review for one of the expensive gels and, very fortunately, one reviewer wrote: "I like the tape better than any of the gels." I thought to myself, "What tape?" So I searched for silicone tape and found THIS product at 1/4 the cost of my dermatologist pricey gel! I was a little miffed that my dermatologist did NOT tell me about the silicone tape when I informed him that I can not afford the gel. He should have told me about the tape! If he really cared about the 6 sutures on my nose healing really well, and not chiefly concerned with making money off his expensive gel, he would have told me about the silicone tape. Using this tape, the 6 sutures on the side of my nose healed completely! There is NO TRACE of any surgery there! It's rather miraculous, to me, how terrifically this tape helps wounds to heal completely! One more thing. The silicone gel does not offer the same level of sun protection as this tape does. The tape blocks the sun 100%, making for better would healing on areas exposed to the sun such as the face. And even at $16.00, the profit on this product is very high. It doesn't cost much to make silicone tape! You'll pay through the nose for silicone gel and if vanity is that important to you, go for the silicone gel. But for optimal would healing at a lower cost, go with this tape. Excellent product! Excellent seller!

I am surprised by the low ratings people gave this tape, but not shocked at their comments. People you will not see the results you think you will in 2-4 wks! scar pads take longer then that on new scars and twice as long on old ones but this tape does work. I gave it a 4* because it is way better than the Scar-Away type pads Now those pads are thicker and have a nice clothlike backing but this tape...well, I have a scar that goes across my chest from the farthest part of my armpit across to the other. over 2ft long. I was using an entire pack of Scar-away pads and they were bunching and falling off. Don't get me started on them not sticking because of a single drop of sweat or oil on my skin. This tape is way better to apply to a long scar and it sticks better. I have kept it on and showered!!! Not possible with the other ones. I will say getting it wet wasn't the best Idea. The next time I took it off a little bit of skin came from a spot I believe a drop of water got under. I now make sure it is 100% dry at all times. washing the tape and hanging it to dry is easier than individual pads as well. My doctor saw me for a 2 month checkup and was shocked. Like the other Black person mentioned, yes there is a little bit of darkening along the edges of the scar (which is still reddish pink for me). I am medium toned and barely noticed it until her comment made me pay attention. Even with the darkening, my doctor says the scar looks lie it's 2 years old not two months. I have been sleeping in these things and wearing them all day. So the proof is in the Doctor's words. I took one star away because they are very thin and if they fold over it's difficult to get them flat again.

We use this for my daughter's g tube dressing and its one of the few tapes that holds all day without irritating her skin. It lasts us half a month with daily changes we perfer the wider version but we cut this in half and its perfect sized.

Bought this because I read it can be used on scars. Have keloid scarring after double mastectomy. Came badly packaged and gave me a rash within a few hours. Won’t use it again.
