Topical Silicone Scar Removal Products Have Been Tested

• In a controlled study at major South Florida medical center.
• In a serious analysis by doctors in Pune, India
• Both studies found silicone in gel form reduced the size of scars for more than half of their test patients.

Why would a doctor recommend a scar removal cream over medical treatment?

• You are prone to forming serious scarring, such as keloids and hypertrophic scars.
• You have a family history of bad scarring.
• You are a person of color. Dark skin scars more noticeably.
• You can’t afford it and insurance won’t cover it.

Research also determined silicone reduces scar tenderness, stops itching, and softens scar tissue, which helps flatten a scar.
