The full story

Silagen Silicone Scar Gel SPF 30 — Silicone and Sunscreen in One Step

Silagen Scar Gel SPF 30 combines a medical-grade silicone scar gel with broad-spectrum SPF 30, so a scar keeps its silicone layer and gets sun protection without a separate sunscreen layered on top.

Why sun protection matters for scars

Scar tissue is more sensitive to UV than the skin around it. Sun exposure while a scar is still maturing can leave it permanently darker than the surrounding skin tone, even when it heals flat.

Why patients use it

Two jobs, one product: silicone occlusion plus SPF 30 in a single application.
Made for scars that show: useful anywhere a scar is regularly uncovered.
Clear, thin finish: dries to a flexible layer that wears under clothing or on its own.

How to use

Apply a thin layer twice daily to clean, dry, fully closed skin. Not for use on open wounds.
Switch to the SPF version once a scar will be exposed to daylight, or as it matures and loses its pink color — often around 12 weeks.
Reapply during long days outdoors, and after swimming, sweating or towel drying.

Sun and scars: common questions

Can regular sunscreen go on a new scar?
Once the skin is fully closed, yes, and a gentle mineral sunscreen is a reasonable choice. A silicone gel with SPF built in means one product instead of two, which makes daily use easier to sustain.

How long should a scar be protected from the sun?
Dr. Piazza recommends sun protection for the first 18 months, while a scar is still maturing.

Does the sun make scars darker?
Yes. UV exposure can trigger pigmentation in maturing scar tissue, and that discoloration can become permanent.

In Dr. Piazza's practice

This is step two of the scar protocol used at The Piazza Center in Austin, Texas. Full details are in Dr. Piazza's scar protocol.

Starting from day one of scar care? The Silicone Scar Care Kit pairs this with Silagen 100% Silicone Scar Gel.

Individual results vary. This product supports, and does not replace, clinical advice. Do not apply to open wounds. Discontinue use and contact your care team if irritation occurs.

A scar that heals flat can still heal dark. Sun is why.

Why new scars need sunscreen.

Scar tissue keeps remodeling for 12 to 18 months, and while it does, it pigments far more readily than the skin around it. UV during that window can leave a scar permanently darker, even when it heals flat.

Silagen SPF 30 does both jobs in one step: the silicone layer that limits moisture loss from the scar, plus broad-spectrum protection, so you are not layering a separate sunscreen over your scar gel.

What's inside.

Dries to a thin, flexible film that limits moisture loss from the scar, the mechanism behind silicone's role in scar care.
Broad-spectrum SPF 30
Shields maturing scar tissue from the UV that darkens it.
