Dermaflage Scar Filler, Refill Applicator

I have had a chicken pock scar right on the end of my nose since I was eight years old. I've been self conscious about it for as long as I can remember. No matter how much I try to live an enlightened life and try to accept it, I can't. I gave in a couple years ago and tried to have it lasered and subcised (sp?) a couple of times. but after a few hundred dollars and multiple days off work to heal it left my nose looking worse. i was desperate to find something, anything to cover this problem as it was in such a conspicuous spot on my face. I came across this stuff on the internet and decided to try it. I am soooooo glad I did. I will use this stuff on my scar (hopefully) the rest of my life. For me and my particular scaring, Dermafledge is perfect. I take that back, it's not perfect. It lasts no where near as long as it says it does. Frays around the edges at the 6 or 7 hour mark now matter how well you put it on. But a little hairspray around the edges can make it last a few more hours. No, it's not water proof, can't wear make up over it, takes practice "getting it right" and is NOT cheap. But for the first time in my life I can be around people I know, met new people, be face to face with customers at work or in social situations ALL DAY long with out constantly (in the back of my mind) be thinking that all they see is my scar. And that to me is worth all the negative things about this product. there are plenty of good things too: One applicator lasts a while, anyone can find a good shade for their skin color I'm sure and with practice it only takes about 3 MINUETS! to apply, if I get it right the first time (which I usually do now). You don't even need makeup cause it looks very natural, maybe a little underneath if you want. Product is exactly what I had been looking for for a long time. I'm not a review writer. Only because I want this product to still be around 20 years from now did I write this review.

This is not worth the money. It is impossible to work with. Immediately starts to peel off. Dries too quick to work with and is no better than silicone caulk.

Practice definitely makes perfect with this product! It took me a while to get the hang of it but now I don't leave home without it. I have an enlarged pore on my forehead and use Dermaflage to lightly patch it up. Once the product leaves the dispenser, you have about a minute or so to get it on before it sets. I apply the gel with the tip of the wand they provided, smooth it out with the other end and then lightly dab my finger on it once it's semi-dry. Lightly dabbing your finger on the mixture helps the surface set, without the slight skin imprint from your finger, the dried result can be shiny or silicon looking. I also prefer to use a ratio 2 parts skin color product to one part of the clear product because it gives me slightly more control during the drying process. It stays on for 2 days, sometimes longer and it's waterproof. I've found that applying makeup over it after it's set is a big mistake. It draws more attention to the product and looks fake. Instead, I lightly dust it with face powder using a large brush so it's distributed lightly and evenly. This keeps oils away from the gel and makes it last longer. Since this is for scars and everyones are different, it might take some practice but in my opinion, it was well worth it. I'm no longer self conscious about my enlarged pore.

I've used this product on my scar quite a few times. It's a hit or miss how good it's gonna look. If ya get it just right, man does it help a recessed scar. The primer is key.

Honestly I was surprised. To cover a previous old scar or squinting crease in your forehead, just put on an index card (press the handle and both primer and color come out..just a TINY dot) and mix with anything like the back of eyeshadow sponge--use the handle, and QUICKLY mix and put on face. It can be a bit lumpy but press in .don't touch much! Let dry 5 mins..put powder over it if too shiny, and it is filled in! You won't notice it unless you put light on it or direct sun on it, as then it looks like caked makeup. Just peel it off like a face mask when you won't off. Surprised how well it did.

Wish I knew about this product before. So I have a nasty scar on my leg which I was conscious of, someone introduced you to this brand and just my first experiences with it and I am sold. You have to follow the instructions before use so as not to waste the product. Once you do that just enjoy the miracle, the color matched my skin perfectly and it really dry quickly put it before the sunscreen. I will be ordering again

I have a pretty bad cratered scar from singles on my forehead and after reading some of the reviews about how hard it is to make it work - I was still hopeful that maybe after a few trial and error - I can get a hang of it. But no - I tried 5 times - and besides dealing with a mess everytime - I still couldn't get it to work. My skin is getting a little irritated after so many trials. But maybe I'll try again in a couple of days. Will update this post if I am successful :(

Works so well to cover scars that are too deep for concealers.
