I have a keloid-type scar on my breast after a biopsy several years ago which is ugly as well as uncomfortable at times, feeling itchy especially if rubbed by clothing. I’m hoping this will help with its appearance, though I’m not expecting magic especially as the scar is some years old and only having had this tape a few days it’s clearly way too soon to comment on that. But my main reason for trying this is to help with the discomfort and I can certainly say already that it has helped ease the annoying itchiness so I’m very pleased with it from that aspect. In use it’s very strongly adhesive and doesn’t rub off from friction from clothing or even normal washing. Removing it was a bit of a worry at first, given all that strong adhesion, especially where I need to use it, but I’ve found that by holding my skin taut on either side and giving a brisk tug the whole procedure was only mildly uncomfortable. The colour isn’t a good match for my Celtic, and currently sun-starved, skin though it’s certainly less obtrusive than the scar itself. Similarly, very dark skin tones will find it too much of a contrast. (Why not offer in a range of shades to blend better with all skin tones? A star off for missing that trick) On the other hand the colour will not stand out on mid-shade European or light Asian skin. But I guess lots of people like me will be glad to have something that covers an unattractive red scar. Bright blue would even be preferable! Read more
