What the gurus are saying

Silicone scar gels work best on raised, thickened scars by hydrating the skin and reducing friction during healing, though they won't flatten depressed scars no matter how long you use them. Dermatologists note this Walgreens version can help calm redness and feels lightweight enough not to clog skin, but if your scar is textural (bumpy or uneven), this alone won't smooth it out. Starting early and using it consistently gives the best results.

"There's the Walgreens brand scar gel. Definitely can work. The sooner you start using it and the more consistently you use it the better."

"Silicone scar gels can definitely help improve the final appearance of raised thickened scars. They don't do really much though for atrophic scars, meaning scars that are depressed below the skin surface. If you're somebody who tends to make thicker scars at the time of injury when the skin is healing, if you wear silicone scar gels it definitely can help."

"I found this at Walgreens, which has centella in it. [...] If you're thinking scar is textural and you're using this and you're trying to make the texture go away, good luck, you can use this for a hundred years it will not help. But if you are using this because you have redness and you want that redness to get minimized, this may actually be a nice adjunct. It is a very lightweight gel so you're not going to feel like you're clogging your skin."
