If you’re wondering how to get rid of scars but don’t know where to start, you’re not alone. 

When it comes to treating scars, you have a lot of options! 

Even at Scintera, we have different scar products that focus on different parts of scar management. These products can also be combined for a stronger phased approach. We understand if it can seem daunting if you don’t know where to start. To help you out, we will discuss the differences between each of our scar management products: Scar Fx Silicone Sheets, Scar Esthetique Silicone Scar Cream, and ScarSil Silicone Scar Gel. 

What is it?

Scar Fx is scar management in the form of silicone sheeting. Silicone is considered the gold standard when it comes to products for diminishing the look and feel of scarring. Scar Fx composed of 100% medical-grade silicone and comes in over 12 different sizes to best fit the size of your scar and your unique needs. We've separated these into three categories: standard sheeting, breast sheeting, and compression wraps.

What is it used for?

Scar Fx is best when used on surgical scars. There are different sheet sizes that match specific surgical procedures so you can best tailor the fit to the size and location of your scar. For example, we have five unique shapes that target breast procedures. There are also sizes for c-sections, tummy tucks, mohs procedures, and really any other surgery. Scar Fx is comfortable and shapes seamlessly to the body. Silicone sheeting is recognized as the primary treatment option for post-surgical scarring by the International Advisory Panel on Scar Management.

How does it work?

Silicone scar sheeting designed to soften and flatten raised scarring and assist in preventing surgical scars from forming. As we mentioned, Scar Fx works great with surgical scars as it can be applied shortly after the procedure and adhered with surgical tape. 

What is it?

Scar Esthetique is a scar management cream that combines 23 effective ingredients, including silicone. Our unique formula pulls together some of the best ingredients known for scar management and overall skin health. We also recommend Scar Esthetique as Phase 2 of the Rejuvaskin scar management system. 

What is it used for?

The scar cream uses silicone, polypeptides, botanicals, and antioxidants to reduce the appearance of older scars or when your primary concern is discoloration. Our blend of ingredients targets color at the cellular level to soften and brighten the appearance of scars. It's perfect for simple surgical scars or any new scar that is darker than the surrounding skin. 

How does it work?

Our list of quality ingredients works to soften and diminish the look of scars while also improving discolouration and soothing dry skin. Onion Bulb, Arnica, Grape Seed, and Calendula are just a few of the all-natural ingredients found in this scar management cream. Each plays an important role in reducing the size and appearance of your scarring. 

What is it?

ScarSil is a silicone scar gel designed to soften and flatten raised scarring. ScarSil Silicone Scar Gel is clear, unscented and water-resistant for subtle scar management that can be used all day long! We often recommend using ScarSil alongside the silicone sheeting as a part of the Scar Heal Kit. 

What is it used for?

Similar to the silicone sheeting, ScarSil helps soften and flatten raised scars. It's also our recommended product for pediatric and facial scars. The gel is non-comedogenic, meaning it should not cause breakouts. It's also very light and velvety, and unlike other silicone gels, it feels great on the skin. ScarSil's easy application and quick-drying make it great for children. It's also water resistant!

How does it work?

ScarSil also contains silicone, which, as we’ve mentioned, works to flatten and lighten scars by helping to reduce collagen production to soften, even keloid scarring! ScarSil also contains vitamin C and squalane which help relieve your scar’s itchiness.
