When it comes to scar care, the voices that matter most are those of medical professionals who see the results firsthand. Doctors and dermatologists consistently recommend science-backed solutions to their patients for post-surgical recovery, injury, and acne scars. The clinical consensus points overwhelmingly to one key ingredient as the gold standard in non-invasive scar management: medical-grade silicone [1].
At Nuvadermis, we've built our reputation on this principle, creating clinically-supported silicone scar products that professionals trust for their patients' skin. Below, leading doctors share why they choose Nuvadermis and the incredible scar improvement stories they've witnessed in their practices.
Why Doctors Choose Nuvadermis
The effectiveness of silicone in scar management is well-documented. It works by creating a hydrated, occlusive environment that helps regulate collagen production, leading to softer, flatter, and less noticeable scars. A recent meta-analysis showed that topical silicone gel significantly reduced pigmentation and height in post-operative scars compared with placebos or no treatment. This is why physicians across specialties incorporate it into their post-procedure protocols.

"Following any cosmetic procedure, from a tummy tuck to a breast augmentation, my primary goal is to ensure the patient has the best possible outcome with minimal scarring. I recommend the Nuvadermis Silicone Scar Sheets to all my post-operative patients. They are comfortable, breathable, and provide the constant, gentle pressure needed to help flatten and soften incision lines. We've seen results that align with established case studies showing significant improvements in both new and old surgical scars." [2]

"In dermatology, we address a wide range of scar types, including stubborn acne scars and hypertrophic scars from injuries. For facial scars, where sheets can be impractical, Nuvadermis Advanced Scar Gel is my go-to recommendation. Its lightweight formula is easy to apply and contains additional ingredients like Retinol and Vitamin E to support skin restoration. Patients appreciate the convenience, and I appreciate the consistent, visible improvement in scar texture and discoloration. It’s an effective at-home solution for both new and long-standing scars."

"Scar care for children requires an especially gentle approach. After a procedure, the last thing a parent wants is a product that irritates their child's sensitive skin. I trust Nuvadermis because their products are hypoallergenic and manufactured to strict standards. The Silicone Scar Tape is particularly effective for pediatric patients. It's flexible, stays in place, and helps minimize the appearance of surgical scars on a child's delicate skin. The results we see are consistent with case studies demonstrating silicone's effectiveness for post-surgical scars in children." [1]
