Scar Healing After Open Heart Surgery (Mederma Scars Review)

As you research heart valve surgery, an endless number of questions arise. I’ll never forget when I first interviewed Dr. Trento at Cedar Sinai. He told me that my aortic valve was in bad shape - fully calcified, both stenotic and regurgitation was going on. Then, Dr. Trento looked at my chest, noticed I had some chest hair and said, “Ehh. No one will ever know you even had the Ross Procedure.”

While I did not end up selecting Dr. Trento as my cardiac surgeon, Dr. Trento was incredibly accurate in his prediction about my scar healing. It’s fourteen months following my surgery, and my incision scar is barely noticeable.

However, I was lucky to hear about, read about and use Mederma scar treatment after open heart surgery.

Does Mederma Work?
