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

Recommended by my doctor and it is easy to apply, lasts and is comfortable, stays in place, and provides great results. My scars have healed beautifully and will be barely visible. Great value for the money.

Quality silicone tape. Basil cell surgery resulted in a 1 1/2 length facial incision. Three weeks after surgery I began daily application of the silicone tape in addition to daily massages of the scar. I am three months after the surgery. My scar is approaching invisible.The tape has good thickness but is easy to work with. The tape color matches my skin tone making it unnoticeable. The tape stays in place and is comfortable. I attribute my better than expected scar result to the quality of the silicone tape.

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!

For bell's palsy, they recommend taping your non-closing eye closed at night in order to prevent damage to your eye. This tape was a game changer. All other tapes felt like they were going to remove skin. I hope to never experience bells palsy again, but if I do, or if I encounter others who do, this is the tape I'll recommend. Facial palsy UK is the most helpful site I found for those seeking more info on bells palsy. It shows a video how to tape your eye closed.

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.

This tape is great for keeping medical equipment attached to my son. We use it specifically for nasal cannulas and gtube gauzes to be taped to his skin and it’s the only tape that doesn’t severely make his skin react when peeled off. It can be peeled off and used again multiple times before it’s not longer sticky. It typically lasts us about a month per roll depending. Definitely recommend to anyone with sensitive skin.
