BYE BYE BOO BOO!


Sometimes I don't realize how much of an occupational hazard it is to be on a photoshoot!
Two weeks ago I had the corner of a 10' piece of plexiglass fly right into my arm. I probably should have gone to the emergency room to get it stitched up, but sometimes I can be very stubborn.
I also knew that I would be hitting the medical tradeshow where last year I discovered a medical line that is amazing at preventing stretch mark scars and other post-operative scars. The line is called Medicalia. Just a little warning: if you have a weak stomach I would try to surf straight to the doctor locater. That is the only way you can get your hot hands on this product.
I already started to use it and the scar is starting to fade.
I will try download a before and after progress photo if I get the chance.
The photos on their site are far more impressive though.
How fresh does the scar have to be? I met a woman at the show that had a surgical scar from childhood. She said that her scar decreased in dimension and color even though it had been over 30 years later. She also
told me that it is easier to treat a scar that is horizontal versus vertical.
Learn something new every day!
By the way the exact name of the product is post-operative care cream.
Try it out!
