“The only silicone brand I'll use!!! Silagen is the only silicone to use! So happy to see the Skin Spot stocks this brand. My plastic surgeon specifically recommended Silagen after removing sutures from my face following a dog attack. I purchased both formulas, the original and this one with SPF. I like that Silagen dries quickly. While trying to find this brand I purchased another silicone and the formula never dried, just remained sticky. Thankfully Skin Spot ships fast. Get the bigger size, you won't be sorry.”

How To Use
How to Use Silagen Scar Gel SPF for Best Results
Use only after wound closure; follow the steps below for optimal scar protection.
- Begin use after 2 weeks (you may begin using the gel once the wound has closed no bleeding or oozing) and after any removable stitches have been removed
- Do not put on open wounds
- Ensure the scar area is clean and dry, as well as free from creams, lotions, ointments and powders
- Apply a very small amount of gel to the scar and gently massage
- Allow to fully dry
- Once dry, cosmetics and compression garments may be used over the scar
- Use twice daily for 8-12 weeks for optimal results. Patients who use Silagen consistently twice a day for 2 months get the best results.
- If you are prone to forming excessive scars (hypertrophic or keloid) you may want to continue treatment for up to 6 months
- Do not use the gel under Silagen silicone sheets, strips, or shapes. They will not stick to the skin if you do.

FAQs
Silagen Scar Gel SPF FAQs
Q: What is Silagen Scar Gel SPF and why would I use it instead of ordinary scar creams?
A: Silagen Scar Gel SPF is a medical-grade silicone scar gel that also includes sun protection (SPF 30). The silicone helps create a breathable barrier over healed scars, which supports proper collagen remodeling. The SPF helps protect scar tissue — especially new scars or scars in sun-exposed areas — from UV-induced darkening and discoloration.
Q: When can I start using Silagen Scar Gel SPF on a scar?
A: Only apply Silagen Scar Gel SPF once your wound is fully healed — meaning no open cuts, no scabbing or bleeding, and if there were stitches, they’ve been removed. Silicone gels (with or without SPF) should not be applied to open wounds.
Q: How often and for how long should I use Silagen Scar Gel SPF to see results?
A: For best results, apply a very thin layer of gel on the clean, dry scar twice daily (morning and evening). Keep up the routine consistently — many dermatological guides recommend 8–12 weeks as a starting timeframe for visible improvement, though older or more severe scars may require longer use (3–6 months or more).
Q: Can Silagen Scar Gel SPF improve older scars — or does it only work on new ones?
A: Yes — silicone scar gels (with or without SPF) have been shown to benefit both new and older scars. While newer scars usually respond faster, older scars can still soften, flatten, and fade in colour over time with consistent use.
Q: Is Silagen Scar Gel SPF safe for sensitive skin? Are there any side-effects I should watch for?
A: Generally yes — medical-grade silicone is considered biocompatible and low-risk, even on sensitive skin. However, as with any topical product, there’s a small chance of mild irritation, redness, or sensitivity — especially if over-applied or used on skin not fully healed. If you notice irritation, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
Q: Can I use this gel if the scar is on a body part exposed to sun (face, arms, hands)?
A: Absolutely — that’s one of the advantages of Silagen Scar Gel SPF. The SPF helps shield the scar from UV exposure, which can worsen scar pigmentation or make scars more noticeable. Just make sure the scar is healed and clean before applying, and continue your regular scar-care routine.
