overall review score: 4.2
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
score is between 0 and 5
Silicone gel for scars is a topical treatment designed to improve the appearance of scars caused by surgery, burns, injury, or acne. It typically comes in the form of sheets, gels, or ointments that are applied directly to the scar tissue. The silicone acts as a barrier that helps hydrate and soften the scar tissue, promoting a flatter, smoother, and less noticeable scar over time.
