Common scar and keloid products, a reference guide.
The silicone sheets, gels, scar creams, and pressure products most commonly used by the keloid and hypertrophic scar community. Each page covers what the product is, what published research supports, honest trade-offs, and who it tends to fit. We summarize the evidence base and how patients actually use these — not personal testing of every item.
