Can you tell me if mederma helps with herpes skin discoloration?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not.: Mederma is supposed to improve the appearance of scars; I don't know of any evidence that it has an effect, one way or the other, on skin discoloration.

I had a cut on my lip and i was putting peroxide on it but i learned that kills new skin cells. I'm now using Mederma for the scar but it doesn't look like it's going to heal the scar. Any other suggestions or is the tissue too dead from the peroxide?
