Cica-Care Silicone Gel 15g
Cica-Care Silicone Gel 15g is a clinically supported silicone-based formulation designed to help soften, smooth, and reduce the appearance of raised, red, or hypertrophic scars. Suitable for both new and existing scars, the lightweight gel forms a breathable, flexible protective layer that mimics the barrier function of healthy skin. This helps maintain optimal hydration within the scar tissue, supporting the natural regeneration process while improving overall texture, colour, and elasticity over time.
The gel is easy to apply and dries to a clear, non-sticky film that can be worn comfortably throughout the day. It is ideal for use on scars resulting from surgical procedures, injuries, burns, or trauma, and is gentle enough for most skin types. With consistent use, Cica-Care Silicone Gel helps minimise visible scar height, reduces redness, and supports a smoother, more even-toned appearance.
