Every mother’s birth story is different, and for many women who give birth via Caesarean section (C-section), recovery continues long after leaving the hospital. While physical healing is often visible, the emotional journey and personal experiences that follow are not always openly discussed.
Recognising this, Dermatix Malaysia has launched See Her Heal – 1,000 Untold Stories, a nationwide campaign that encourages mothers to share their C-section recovery journeys while creating greater understanding, empathy and support for women navigating life after childbirth.
The initiative also marks 15 years of Dermatix in Malaysia.
A Safe Space For Mothers To Share Their Stories
At the heart of the campaign is an interactive microsite powered by Generative AI, allowing mothers to submit personal reflections inspired by their C-section experiences.
Each submission is transformed into an AI-generated illustrated story, offering mothers a creative and private way to express moments that may be difficult to describe through words alone.
The campaign aims to create a supportive platform where mothers feel acknowledged while encouraging more open conversations about postpartum recovery.
“Recovery after childbirth is deeply personal, and many mothers may feel that parts of their C-section experience are not openly spoken about or fully understood. Through See Her Heal – 1,000 Untold Stories, we hope to create a supportive space where mothers can share their stories, feel acknowledged and know that they are not alone.
“As Dermatix marks 15 years in Malaysia, this campaign reflects our commitment to encouraging greater empathy, understanding and support for mothers as they navigate life after childbirth,” said Josie Ong, General Manager of Menarini Malaysia.
Bringing Mothers And Communities Together
The campaign was officially introduced during a launch event attended by maternal health advocates, parenting content creators and community partners.
Discussions focused on the realities of C-section recovery, highlighting how every mother’s healing journey is unique and how emotional reassurance, honest conversations and supportive communities can play an important role during the postpartum period.
Guests also experienced the campaign platform firsthand through interactive activations that demonstrated how personal reflections are transformed into AI-generated illustrated stories.
Supporting Recovery Beyond Childbirth
Alongside the launch of See Her Heal – 1,000 Untold Stories, A. Menarini Malaysia is extending its community efforts through a collaboration with the Cleft Lip and Palate Association of Malaysia (CLAPAM).
As part of Dermatix’s 15th anniversary initiatives, the company will sponsor treatment costs for cleft lip surgeries and provide scar care products to support post-surgical scar recovery, reinforcing its broader commitment to helping families throughout their healing journeys.
Mothers, families and supporters who wish to participate in See Her Heal – 1,000 Untold Stories can share their experiences through the campaign microsite at 1000untoldstories.com. The initiative aims to amplify stories that often go unheard while fostering greater compassion and understanding for mothers recovering from C-section births.
