Anyone ever heard of a cream called Mepiform?

My 13 month old fell and cut her forehead open last week. We took her to a plastic surgeon who stitched her up.
When he was telling us how to care for the stitches and stuff, he mentioned that he recommends this special Mepiform cream to his facelift patients and it helps minimize scarring.
So I went to a bunch of pharmacies, and no one has it - could it have a different name?
Any help?
Thanks,

It works but it takes a long time, at least on existing scars.

You pretty much have to use Mederma (can't speak for the other stuff) everyday for a year or so for it to remove a smallish scar. Hey, that time is going to pass anyway, so it's not really a big deal to make it part of a daily regimen.
