Frequently Asked Questions

Nuvadermis is built differently. We're Leaping Bunny Certified cruelty-free, dermatologist-tested, and formulated to be safe for sensitive skin — with every product HRIPT patch tested to confirm it. On scar care specifically, we don't cut corners: while other brands use cheaper silicone, we use only the highest quality medical-grade silicone in our scar tape and sheets, the same standard used in clinical and surgical settings

Yes. All of our formulas are hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, and HRIPT patch tested - meaning they've been clinically confirmed as non-irritating and safe for long-term use on all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Absolutely. Nuvadermis is Leaping Bunny Certified, which means no animal testing at any stage of product development, including by our ingredient suppliers.

Silicone creates a thin, breathable barrier over the scar that locks in moisture and reduces excessive collagen buildup, which is the main cause of raised, bumpy scars. It also protects the scar from friction and bacteria. With consistent use, scars become softer, flatter, lighter, and less noticeable over time.

Clean and dry the scar area before applying. Cut the tape to fit, remove the backing, and place the adhesive side directly on your scar. Each strip can be worn for up to 24 hours and reused for several days with proper care. Do not use on open wounds.

Gently wash the tape with mild soap and warm water after each use. Rinse thoroughly, let it air dry adhesive-side up, and store it on the protective liner until your next application. With proper care, each strip can be reused for up to 7 days.

Yes! We recommend it. Apply a thin layer of scar gel or cream to clean, dry skin 2–3 times daily, let it absorb, then layer a silicone sheet or tape on top. This combination locks in moisture and keeps the active ingredients working longer. For best results, use consistently for at least 8 weeks.

New scars from surgery or injury often show visible improvement in about 6 weeks with consistent use. Older scars may take 2–4 months, but many customers see scars soften, flatten, and fade significantly with regular application.

Yes. Silicone tape can help soften and flatten keloid and hypertrophic scars over time, while reducing itching, redness, and thickness. For severe keloids, we recommend pairing silicone therapy with guidance from a dermatologist.

No. Our scar tape is adhesive-free and latex free. It adheres through the natural properties of medical-grade silicone, making it gentle, comfortable, and safe for daily wear.

Yes. All products undergo dermatologist testing and approval to confirm both safety and effectiveness. We also conduct HRIPT (Human Repeat Insult Patch Testing) to ensure our formulas are non-irritating and suitable for long-term use.
