A coworker told me that Preparation H applied to freshly healed cuts can really help cut down on scarring, she said her son did this on a big cut across his face and you can't even see it, anyone know if there's any truth to this?     | ||

Yes it is true and also works on stretch marks, zits, bags under the eyes and hemroids of all things. ------------------ | ||

Anyone else here use this in addition to tanning? I can't remember where but I read or heard somewhere that if applied to problems spots (fattyareas) it will help sweat off a little more water where applied. like leave little beads of watter... Or am I just thinking of some stupid shit???Anyone else hear this? | ||

TxCollegeguy, you are not hallucinating...I--and many others before me--have ventured to applying Prep-H to our abs, glutes, hams, quads, etc., while tanning for the last 2 weeks or so before a bodybuilding contest to "push out" some excess subcutaneous water and I can tell you first hand that it works! It increases vascularity also by literally shrinking the skin cells (temporarily), hence why it clears up enflamed 'roids! You really need to be at a low bodyfat percentage to see noticeable results...I was at about 5% when I started and entered my show at 3%... I'd put it on after the tanning lotion before getting in the bed... ------------------ |
