Science
Advanced Sili-Gel is a high-silicone gel that is enriched with Silicone and Aerated Silica, providing a blurring effect to improve the look, tone and texture of existing scars. Our best silicone gel for scars, it is ideal for incisions associated with surgical procedures, as well as scars caused by wounds such as burns, scrapes, and cuts. This breakthrough silicone gel features 95% silicone, 0.5% Allantoin, 2% Omega-6, Omega-9 fatty acids, and 1% Aerated Silica to protect and soothe dry post-procedure skin. With an elegant, invisible and non-greasy texture, this silicone gel protects and creates an ideal environment that helps blur the look of recent scars.
How to use
Once daily, or as needed, apply a small amount evenly to affected area. Do not apply to broken skin. Complete your regimen with a SkinCeuticals sunscreen. When used in conjunction with SkinCeuticals Advanced Sili-Gel, a broad spectrum sunscreen helps shield the skin from UV rays that can negatively impact scar healing by increasing discoloration and uneven texture.1,2
