Motherlove C-Section Cream (1 oz) | Organic Herbal Balm for Cesarean Scar Massage

LOVE this c section cream, very smooth. Slightly oily. Keeps the scar moist for a while. The smell isn’t the best, very herbal. Small jar but lasts.

I don't know if it worked or not but it did help me get used to/accustomed to my scar since it was a little startling for me to see at first. Didn't stain any of my clothes but I was also cautious not to wear anything I super loved after just applying

Has Helene’s my c section scar tremendously even after 3 previous ones these cream has even healed scarring from those c sections!

update: customer service is top notch & I look forward to trying more products from this company. I use this cream at night and silicone patches during the day so I can’t be sure if either or both are working. My scar seems to be healing alright, but no way to know if it’s healing any better than it would be without either of these products. That said, this is a very small jar for the price - I knew that when I purchased it based off other reviews. What I did not anticipate was the jar having a huge trapped air bubble in the middle of the cream resulting in even less product for me. Not thrilled at the price for the amount in my jar.

I really love this cream but I wish the size was a little bigger. It’s very smooth and helps scar itch less.

I started using this cream about 3 weeks ago, when I was about 2.5 months postpartum. It had taken a long time for my incision to fully close up initially, partly because I had some stitching poking out (yikes) and partly because this incision was a lot wider and bled more post-surgery than I experienced with my first C-section. I follow Motherlove on Instagram as I am a fan of some of their other products and as soon as I saw that they had released a C-section cream I knew I had to try it. Now I'm not the best at remembering to put it on multiple times a day as the directions suggest, but I have been putting it on every night before I go to bed, massaging along my incision as I do so. At the very least, whether this product works for you and your skin or not, it will help you remember to massage your incision! I've heard several times now after having my second child via Cesarean that I should massage along my incision line in small, circular motions to help reduce scar tissue and promote fluid skin movement. I was NEVER told this the first time I delivered via C-section, and that scar felt STUCK in place, as if it was glued to my insides. I am only 3 months postpartum now and between using this cream and doing the massages, it has made a HUGE difference! Full disclaimer: the first day I used the cream, it made the scar area more sensitive, but I suspect that was just because my skin was being "woken up" in a way. The sensitivity was gone by the next day, and rapid improvement followed. I can't believe how great my scar looks now, even though this incision was a lot wider and scarier looking than my first. I really like the smell, it spreads evenly, absorbs well, and makes massaging the area smooth and easy. My scar has gone from red/purple, itchy and irritated to white in some areas, pink in others, and not irritated at all. I showed my mom who also delivered via c-section a couple times and she was amazed at how good it looked! I will say, however, I'm not one to overhype anyone about a certain product, and when it comes to skin there's a crazy variance in what works for some and not others, but with good, clean ingredients and being great for massaging along the incision, I feel like you can't go wrong with this cream. It has helped me dramatically! Thanks Motherlove for creating a product for us Cesarean mothers! P.S. The photo included in my review is my scar now at 3 months postpartum and about 3 weeks since starting to use this cream. I'm kicking myself for not taking a before photo, but I really didn't like looking at it before!

I did a lot of research on c section scar ointments/products and found this. The product is great and my scar looks fantastic after a month and a half of using it after my c section. However, I was so bummed when I saw that my jar wasn’t even filled properly. I basically got half of the product because clearly, the ointment has space in between the jar and the top layer of the ointment. I’m so bummed because this product is extremely expensive for the amount of product you get. Disappointed.

I love this cream. I had an open abdominal myomectomy so my scar is maybe 9 inches long, vertical. This is the only cream that kept the itching and stinging from happening, especially after my staples were removed. I keep using it to keep the skin there comfortable.
