If you’ve been researching ways to fade or prevent scars, you’ve likely come across two trusted solutions: silicone scar gels and silicone sheets. Both are clinically proven to improve scar appearance, but they work in slightly different ways — and the right one for you depends on your skin, lifestyle, and scar type.

At Rejûvaskin, we believe scar care should be simple, effective, and tailored to you. Let’s break down how each silicone option works, the benefits of both, and how combining RejûvaSil® Silicone Scar Gel and Scar Fx® Silicone Sheeting can deliver around-the-clock results for smoother, healthier-looking skin.

The Science Behind Silicone Scar Therapy

Silicone has been the gold standard for scar management for over three decades. Clinical studies show that silicone helps hydrate the skin, regulate collagen production, and minimize redness and thickness in scars.

When applied to the skin, silicone forms a thin, breathable layer that protects the healing tissue while locking in moisture. This barrier helps balance collagen production — the key to preventing raised or discolored scars.

Both silicone sheets and silicone gels have strong evidence supporting their use for hypertrophic and keloid scars. A comprehensive review found that silicone therapy significantly improves scar texture and color, whether used after surgery or on older scars (O’Brien & Jones, 2006); (De Decker et al., 2022).

Silicone Scar Gel: Light, Invisible, and Effortless

If you prefer a low-maintenance option that fits into your daily routine, silicone gel is an excellent choice.

How It Works

Silicone gel, like RejûvaSil® Silicone Scar Gel, dries quickly to form a flexible, invisible film. It’s ideal for areas that move a lot (like joints or the abdomen), or for scars that are visible, such as on the face or neck.

Why You’ll Love It:

• Lightweight and fast-drying

• Works under makeup and sunscreen

• Great for smaller scars or active lifestyles

• Gentle on sensitive, healing skin

Research shows silicone gel can significantly improve scar height, pliability, and color while reducing itch and tightness (Puri & Talwar, 2009).

Silicone Sheets: Reliable Coverage and Deep Healing

Silicone sheeting, like Scar Fx® Silicone Sheeting, provides consistent, long-term coverage for scars. The sheet forms a protective barrier that maintains hydration and gentle pressure over the area, helping scars flatten and fade more effectively.

Why You’ll Love It:

• Ideal for larger or raised scars

• Reusable and long-lasting

• Great for overnight wear or post-surgical care

• Helps minimize redness, thickness, and tightness

Clinical studies confirm that continuous silicone coverage can significantly improve scar quality and reduce scar elevation (Kakinuma et al., 2022); (Choi et al., 2015).

Gel vs. Sheets: Choosing What Works for You

Both options are effective, but each has unique strengths. Silicone gels are invisible and flexible, perfect for daily use and visible scars. Silicone sheets provide more coverage and pressure, ideal for overnight therapy or larger scars.

If you lead an active lifestyle, start with RejûvaSil® for daytime use. If you’re recovering from surgery or dealing with a raised scar, Scar Fx® offers consistent, targeted treatment while you rest.

The Best of Both Worlds: 24-Hour Scar Care

For optimal results, dermatologists recommend combining both. Use RejûvaSil® Silicone Gel during the day for invisible, all-day protection, and apply Scar Fx® Silicone Sheeting overnight for continuous hydration.

This combination ensures your skin receives the benefits of silicone therapy 24/7 — accelerating healing, maintaining hydration, and supporting smoother, more even skin tone.

Recent research confirms that combining silicone forms can enhance overall outcomes in post-surgical scar management (An & Kim, 2024).
