It’s Never Too Late for Scar Care—Really: How to Improve the Look of O – Rejûvaskin

Let’s Set the Record Straight: Old Scars Can Improve

Whether it’s from surgery, an accident, or a childhood mishap, most people think once a scar has "set in," there’s no point in trying to change it. But here’s the truth: mature scars are still biologically active and can be improved—often significantly—with the right care.

Scars are the body’s way of closing wounds quickly, but over time, the collagen that forms scar tissue continues to reorganize and remodel for months—even years. That means your skin is still responsive to change, no matter how long ago your scar appeared.

What Works for Older Scars?

1. Topical Silicone—The Gold Standard

If you’ve been wondering what dermatologists and surgeons recommend first for scars of any age, it’s silicone—hands down.

Proven Benefits: Clinical studies show silicone gels and sheets reduce scar thickness, soften texture, improve color, and increase elasticity—even for scars decades old (Westra et al., 2016), (Wang et al., 2020).
Mechanism: Silicone hydrates the scar, helps regulate fibroblast activity, and creates a semi-occlusive barrier to normalize collagen overproduction (Bleasdale et al., 2015).

Rejuvaskin Tip: Try our Scar Esthetique Silicone Scar Cream for a nourishing, multi-ingredient formula with Vitamin C, peptides, and botanicals. Or go with Rejuvasil Silicone Scar Gel for a lightweight, invisible solution you can wear confidently all day.

2. Combination Therapy Works Better

If you want faster or more dramatic results, pairing treatments is the way to go.

Silicone + Compression: Using silicone sheets with light pressure helps flatten thick scars more effectively than either alone (Klopp et al., 2000).
Silicone + Microneedling: For textured or raised scars, microneedling plus silicone application significantly improved scar thickness and color over using either treatment alone (Fabbrocini et al., 2016).

3. Longevity Doesn’t Mean “Untreatable”

One study included scars up to 62 years old—and still saw meaningful improvements in color, elasticity, and texture after silicone sheet application (Westra et al., 2016).

This proves it's never too late to start scar care.

The Rejuvaskin Routine: How to Treat Your Older Scar

Clean and prep your skin—dry completely.
Apply RejuvaSil or Scar Esthetique twice daily, massaging gently into the scar.
Stay consistent for at least 8–12 weeks. Results build over time.
Optional: Pair with compression wraps or discuss microneedling/laser options with a skincare professional.
