Key Features and Benefits

• Self-Adhesive Design: The silicone sheet adheres securely to the skin without the need for additional tape or bandages, ensuring it stays in place during daily activities.
• Washable and Reusable: Each sheet can be washed with mild soap and water and reused for several weeks, providing long-term scar management at a low cost.
• Clinically Proven: Silicone gel sheets are recommended by healthcare professionals worldwide for their effectiveness in softening, flattening, and fading scars.
• Comfortable and Discreet: The thin, flexible sheet conforms to the body's contours and is virtually invisible under clothing, allowing for discreet wear.
• Hypoallergenic: Made from medical-grade silicone, the sheet is hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive skin.

How to Use

For optimal results, clean and dry the scar area thoroughly before applying the silicone sheet. Cut the sheet to the size of the scar if necessary, leaving a small overlap. Apply the adhesive side directly to the scar, ensuring good contact. Wear the sheet for at least 12 hours per day, gradually increasing wear time as tolerated. Remove the sheet daily to clean both the sheet and the skin with mild soap and water. Allow the sheet to air dry before reapplying. Each sheet can be used for 2–4 weeks, depending on care and frequency of use.

Who It Is For

CICA-Care Silicone Gel Sheets are ideal for anyone seeking to improve the appearance of existing scars or prevent new scars from forming. They are suitable for adults and children (with adult supervision) and can be used on scars resulting from surgical incisions, accidental cuts, burns, or other injuries. The sheets are particularly beneficial for individuals with hypertrophic or keloid scars, as silicone therapy is the first-line non-invasive treatment recommended by dermatologists.
