What is silicone scar gel?
Silicone scar gel refers to topical gels and sheets made with silicone that people apply to healed scars, such as surgical, C-section and acne scars, to soften and flatten their look. People search it to compare brands, learn how long to apply it and when to start after healing. In practice, buyers are post-surgery patients, parents and people with acne or injury scars, often following a doctor's or dermatologist's advice. The 400% growth suggests promotion or a trend. It is a repeat-purchase beauty and care category, but claims need to stay modest.
