What to Expect From Using Silagen Scar Refinement

During Silagen Scar Refinement, a medical-grade silicone gel or silicone sheets are administered to a wound, creating a protective barrier that enhances hydration, stabilizes collagen production, softens constricted tissue, minimizes redness, and, over time, flattens and resolves the scar. The gel is massaged into the skin and left to create a thin new layer. With the silicone sheets, patients can wear them for an extended period, improving the appearance and feel of their scar.
