Acne Scarring
Adolescents and adults alike struggle with the telltale markers of acne scarring. Learn how silicone products can make the difference.
Acne Scars & Silicone: 4 Things To Keep In Mind
1. Topical Treatments Can’t Really Help “Icepick” Scars
Silicone is mainly great for flattening raised scars, and unfortunately can’t “fill in” depressed or indented scars, aka “icepick” scars, which are common amongst acne scarring.
2. RejûvaSil Is Perfect For Pores
Made of 97% silicone, RejûvaSil Silicone Scar Gel is noncomedogenic, meaning it doesn’t clog pores— a key cause of acne & acne scarring in the first place.
3. Hyperpigmentation Is No Match For Scar Esthetique
Scar Esthetique Silicone Scar Cream is specially formulated to target discoloration at a cellular level, allowing it to soften scar tissue and fade stubborn hyperpigmentation.
4. Silicone Can Help Redness & Itchy Scars
Silicone scar gel soothes redness and itchiness by keeping scars hydrated, softening the tissue, and calming inflammation. This helps minimize irritation and visibly improve scar appearance over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes acne scars to form?
Acne scars form when inflammation damages skin tissue, leading to either a loss of collagen (causing depressions like icepick or boxcar scars) or excess collagen (resulting in raised scars).
Preventing scars involves reducing inflammation early, but for existing scars, products like RejuvaSil Silicone Scar Gel and Scar Esthetique Silicone Scar Cream are specifically formulated to support scar healing and improve appearance.
How does silicone gel work on acne scars?
Silicone gel forms a thin, breathable layer over acne scars, creating a moisture-rich environment that promotes healing. It works to soften and flatten raised scars, reduce redness, and relieve itchiness. RejuvaSil Silicone Scar Gel combines medical-grade silicone with skin-conditioning ingredients to enhance scar recovery, making it ideal for acne scars and other types of scarring.
What are the best treatments for acne scars?
The best treatments for acne scars often combine silicone-based products, like RejuvaSil Silicone Scar Gel or Scar Esthetique Silicone Scar Cream, with techniques such as laser therapy or microneedling. Silicone gels and creams help to reduce scar appearance by softening and hydrating the skin, while clinical treatments can target deeper scar tissue for more comprehensive healing.
Does silicone gel work on all types of acne scars (e.g., icepick, boxcar, rolling)?
Silicone gel, like RejûvaSil, is highly effective for softening and reducing the appearance of raised scars (hypertrophic and keloid).
While it doesn’t fill depressions (like icepick or boxcar scars), it does help improve the overall texture and discoloration of the scarred skin, making it an excellent option for most acne scar types.
Will silicone gel clog pores or make acne worse?
RejûvaSil Silicone Scar Gel is non-comedogenic, meaning it’s designed to not clog pores or worsen acne. Its lightweight, breathable formula allows the skin to heal without adding extra weight or blocking pores.
This makes it safe for use on acne-prone areas, helping to improve scar appearance without causing further breakouts.
Can I use makeup over silicone gel?
Yes, makeup can be safely applied over RejûvaSil Silicone Scar Gel once it has dried. The gel dries clear and forms a smooth, non-greasy layer, making it an ideal primer for foundation and concealer.
Using makeup over silicone gel can further help cover acne scars while supporting the scar healing process.
