Are you searching for the best scar cream to help heal and reduce the appearance of scars? Look no further than Scar Esthetique Cream by Rejuvaskin. With its carefully selected ingredients, this cream stands out as one of the most effective solutions for scar treatment. Let's dive into the top ingredients that make this scar cream a must-have for anyone looking to improve their skin health.
Key Scar Esthetique Ingredients:
Medical-Grade Silicone
Silicone is the gold standard in scar healing, particularly in the early stages. This ingredient creates a protective barrier over the wound, keeping it moisturized and protected. By doing so, silicone helps flatten and smooth scars, allowing your body to repair itself more effectively. Numerous studies, including a 2020 research review, confirm the efficacy of silicone in scar treatment.
Onion Bulb Extract
Onion extract is another powerhouse ingredient in Scar Esthetique Cream. Known for its anti-inflammatory properties, onion extract aids in reducing swelling and redness around the scar site. This is crucial in preventing the formation of keloids and promoting smoother skin. Research supports the use of onion extract in wound healing, such as the findings presented in this 2020 article.
Calendula Oil (Marigold Extract)
Calendula oil, derived from the marigold plant, is renowned for its healing properties. This extract is high in antioxidants and boasts anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and antiseptic qualities. While specific studies on calendula oil for scars are limited, its general benefits for skin health are well-documented. Learn more about the benefits of calendula oil for your skin.
Arnica Montana
Arnica Montana is known for its ability to reduce pain and inflammation. This ingredient not only soothes the skin but also aids in the healing process. Recent studies, such as this one from 2021, highlight its effectiveness in topical applications.
Polypeptides
Polypeptides, specifically Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12, are crucial for stimulating collagen and elastin production in the skin. These proteins are essential for skin regeneration and improving skin texture. A 2017 study emphasizes the benefits of this peptide in enhancing skin health and reducing the appearance of scars.
Squalane
Squalane, sourced sustainably from sugarcane, is a fantastic hydrator for the skin. It helps maintain skin elasticity and supports the wound healing process. Research, including a 2018 study, shows that squalane promotes macrophage action at the wound site, aiding in scar reduction.
Other Supportive Ingredients:
Pine Bark Extract
Pine bark extract, also known as Pycnogenol (from Maritime/Cluster Pines), is a potent antioxidant that supports the wound healing and scar healing process by reducing oxidative stress. This means reduced inflammation, less texture in the final scar, and more.
Shea Butter
You’re probably already familiar with shea butter; it’s a rich, moisturizing ingredient that helps lock in moisture. We use it in our Scar Esthetique cream because, alongside silicone, it allows us to create a very safe, occluded environment for your scar – while allowing the skin to still breathe.
Beta-Carotene (Vitamin A):
We use beta-carotene, also known as vitamin A, from carrots in our Scar Esthetique cream. Vitamin A is useful in skin regeneration and helping your scars fade over time, something that’s incredibly important for older scars or scars in the later stages of healing. Its role in wound healing is well-documented in various studies.
Grape Seed Extract:
With antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, grape seed extract can significantly aid in the wound healing process. This powerful extract helps reduce inflammation and prevent infection, ensuring a smoother healing experience.
Glucosamine
Glucosamine is commonly used in skincare due to its ability to accelerate wound healing. Not only that, glucosamine can also reduce hyperpigmentation and improve skin hydration. For these reasons, we also use glucosamine in our Skin Recovery Cream.
Seaweed Extracts:
We use both Laminaria saccharina extract & Laminaria japonica extract in our Scar Esthetique cream. These extracts have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and wound healing potential, making them valuable in scar treatment.
Hyaluronic Acid
Here at Rejuvaskin, we use the “salt form” of hyaluronic acid, sodium hyaluronate, in our Scar Esthetique cream because it can draw moisture from the environment and lock it into its chemistry. When used topically, this moisture gets applied to the skin. Since we know that skin moisture is critical for wound healing, ingredients like hyaluronic acid are critical for scar healing.
