Scar Management For Unwanted Pediatric Scarring

Pediatric Scarring

When it comes to our kids, we only want the very best. That’s why when it comes to scar healing, you give them Rejuvaskin.

3 Ways Scarring Is Different For Kids

Thicker & More Irregular Scars:

Pediatric scars have a tendency to have thicker, more randomized collagen structures, making them more visible and potentially more rigid than adult scars

Healing Environment Importance:

Children tend to have a more intense healing response than adults, especially with burns, so an optimal healing environment that keeps collagen production under control is critical

Itchier, Redder Scars:

Another common difference is that children also often have a heightened inflammatory response when scarring, leading to redder, itchier, and overall more dramatic scars than adults

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any age restrictions for using silicone scar treatments on children?

Silicone scar treatments, such as RejûvaSil, are generally safe for children. However, it's advisable to consult with a pediatrician before starting any scar treatment to ensure it's appropriate for your child's specific situation.

How early can scar treatments, like silicone gel, be started for a child?

You must wait until your wound is fully closed before starting use of your silicone scar products, when your wound has begun the “maturation phase” of scar healing. In short, this means your wound is no longer oozing, bleeding, scabbing, etc, which usually takes a few weeks. However if in doubt, we also suggest consulting your doctor to see if it’s time for scar treatment.

Is Scar Fx Silicone Scar Sheeting safe for kids?

Yes! Although RejuvaSil is the main product we recommend for pediatric scars thanks to its hassle-free design & application, our Scar Fx silicone sheets can be just as effective.

However, it is essential to take precautions to ensure safety. Silicone sheets can pose a choking hazard if not securely applied. We recommend firmly attaching the sheet over your child’s scar using the included hypoallergenic medical tape and closely supervising your child while the sheeting is in use. Proper supervision helps ensure the treatment remains secure and effective.

Will scars grow or change as my child gets older?

As children grow, their skin stretches, which can cause scars to change in appearance. Some scars may become less noticeable over time, while others might stretch or become more prominent. Consistent use of silicone scar treatments can help manage and minimize these changes.

Can silicone products be reused, and how often should they be replaced?

Yep! Thanks to its high quality, durable design, our silicone sheeting is made to last about 30-45 days with proper care. This means we recommend replacing your sheeting about every month or month and a half. Learn more about how to care for your sheeting.

How do I apply silicone gel to my child’s scar?

To apply silicone gel to your child's scar:

Clean the Area: Gently wash the scar area with mild soap and water, then pat dry.
Apply the Gel: Squeeze a small amount of RejûvaSil Silicone Scar Gel onto your fingertip.
Spread Evenly: Gently massage the gel over the scar in a thin, even layer.
Allow to Dry: Let the gel dry completely before covering with clothing.

For optimal results, apply the gel 2-3 times daily. Regular application can significantly improve the appearance of scars over time.
