The scar is the final product of wound healing. Humans have lost most of their regenerative abilities in the process of evolution.

Tissue regeneration, without scarring, tissue repair with scars as the final product.

Physiological wound healing is a complex process. It can be described as four phases, which then sometimes overlap: Generally, wound healing is divided into four distinct phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and maturation. Each stage has important biochemical processes that are essential for human health and the regeneration of cellular structures. If the wound is severe enough, blood clotting and tissue regeneration will eventually form a scar.

Silicone, what is it? Why use silicone on scars?

Silicon is a chemical element represented by the symbol Si in the periodic table. Silicones are ingredients made from silicon, inert compounds used on the skin, and they have therapeutic effects on the skin, especially on scars. Silicone-based treatments lighten hypertrophic scars and keloids, restore barrier function in the epidermis' most superficial cell layer, and reduce water loss. If the wound is deep, this barrier function is disrupted and water loss increases. It will take more than a year to get back to normal. By forming a protective barrier against chemical, physical and microbial intrusion while promoting skin hydration, silicone treatment allows scars to evolve with normalized collagen synthesis. It also helps to improve its physical and aesthetic appearance. It is especially useful for swollen abnormal scars, such as keloids or hypertrophic scars.
