Is it safe to use?

Yes, Silagen products are made with a specially designed medical-grade silicone that is non-toxic and non-irritating. They are safe for both children and adults, as well as suitable for all skin types. Silagen is bio-compatible, meaning it does not absorb into the skin but rather stays on the surface, forming a protective barrier.

Can Silagen treat keloids and hypertrophic scars?

Yes, silicone gel sheets and silicone-based ointments have been clinically proven to help reduce, flatten, fade, and smooth out keloid and hypertrophic scars.

Is Silagen effective on older scars?

Yes, research shows that silicone sheeting and ointments can significantly improve the appearance of older red and raised scars. They can help soften, flatten, and reduce discoloration. However, for best results, it is recommended to start treatment as soon as possible after the scar forms.

When can I begin using Silagen after surgery?

You can start applying Silagen once your wound has completely closed — meaning all stitches are removed and there is no scabbing or drainage.

How quickly can I expect to see changes in my scar?

Results vary depending on the individual and the type of scar. Some users notice improvements within the first week, but generally, noticeable changes occur within 3 to 7 weeks, with best results typically seen after 3 months of consistent use.

How many hours each day should I wear Silagen?

Silagen products are designed to be worn between 6 and 24 hours daily. The longer Silagen stays in contact with the scar, the better the outcome. It's important to remove it every 12 hours to check the scar and to clean and dry the area thoroughly.

For how long should I continue using Silagen?

You should keep using Silagen as long as you notice ongoing improvement. On average, treatment lasts about 3 months.

Are there scientific studies that support silicone for scar care?

Yes, there are more than 100 clinical studies that have demonstrated the effectiveness of silicone gel in improving the appearance of scars.
