I'm trying to decide between Opexa gel and Mederma for scar removal and I'm wondering which one works better. Can you also recommend a good cream specifically for acne scars?

Hey, I've been using terbinaforce plus cream on my upper thighs for the last two weeks and the infection seems to have cleared up about a week ago. Should I keep using it even though it looks like it's cured? Just wondering what's best to do here.

It is not necessary to continue applying Terbinaforce plus cream if the infection has already been cured for a week. You can stop using the cream now.
