Overview
This gel is a silicone based formula recommended for use on scars, made for adults and packaged in a compact 15 gram tube. It's a specialty product rather than a general daily facial gel, positioned specifically around supporting the appearance of scars over time.
Silicone gels like this are commonly used as a topical layer applied consistently over weeks or months, since they're designed to work gradually rather than deliver an overnight change. That makes patience and regular application more important than any single application.
With 673 ratings averaging 4.5 stars, the formula has built a genuinely strong track record despite its high price for the size of the tube. Current monthly purchase volume is low, pointing to a smaller, dedicated group of repeat users rather than broad mainstream demand.
Pros
- Silicone based formula built specifically for supporting the look of scars over time
- 4.5 star average across 673 ratings
- Compact tube size makes it easy to apply small amounts precisely
- Can be used on facial scarring, not just body scars
Cons
- Notably expensive for a small 15 gram tube
- Current monthly purchase volume is low
- No skin type guidance listed, so patch testing is smart before regular use
Performance notes
Silicone gel works as a topical layer that sits over a scar and is commonly used to help support the appearance of a scar as it settles over months of consistent use rather than delivering a quick fix. It's not labeled with a specific skin type, so easing in with a small test area is a reasonable precaution, especially on facial skin.
What buyers say
A 4.5 star average across 673 ratings is a strong result for a specialty scar gel, especially given how much pricier it is than a typical facial gel. The current low monthly purchase count suggests a smaller, dedicated group of repeat users rather than broad mainstream demand.

Frequently asked questions
Can this be used on facial acne scars?
It's positioned as a general scar treatment gel, and silicone based formulas like this are commonly applied to facial scarring, including from acne, as part of a longer term routine.
How long does it take to see a difference in how a scar looks?
Silicone gels are typically used consistently over weeks to months, since they work gradually rather than overnight. Patience and regular application tend to matter more than the exact brand chosen.
Is 15 grams enough to last a while?
Because it's usually applied in a thin layer to a limited area like a scar rather than the whole face, a 15 gram tube can last a reasonable amount of time, though heavy or frequent use across larger areas will use it up faster.
