What Scar Treatments Actually Work?

We all want our skin to look and feel its best year-round. Most of us have at least one scar we wish would fade, whether it’s from surgery, an injury, or even acne. Your age, skin type, and genetics all influence how a scar heals. While there are many scar creams on the market, most are not FDA approved—making it harder to know which products truly work.

At The Spa at Spring Ridge, we’re excited to offer BioCorneum, a trusted, FDA-approved scar treatment that combines silicone gel technology with SPF 30 sun protection. It’s recommended by physicians for scars that are stubborn, raised, or slow to heal.

What Is BioCorneum Scar Treatment?

BioCorneum is a lightweight, fast-drying silicone gel that helps soften and smooth scars while protecting them from sun exposure. The unique formula forms a breathable, invisible layer over the skin, helping it retain moisture—an important factor in scar healing.

This treatment is suitable for many types of scars, including those from surgery, burns, or injuries, and it can be applied to both new and older scars. Because it’s water-resistant and can be worn under makeup, it’s easy to fit into your daily routine.

BioCorneum Facts

    • Easy and fast application
    • Quickly dries to form an invisible silicone sheet over the scar
    • Aids in preventing scarring from surgeries or burns
    • Raised scars are flattened
    • The SPF of 30 prevents discoloration to the scar
    • Water-resistant
    • You can apply makeup over the scar
  • You can use it on large scars
  • Safe before, during, or after pregnancy

A recent trial studied the leading popular brand that claims to improve the softness, texture, and appearance of scars. In the trial, this product improved the scars no better than Vaseline. Because of the silicone gel sheeting in BioCorneum, it can speed healing, and thus lead to flattened, less inflamed, and smoother scars. In order for a scar to heal, it needs moisture, and the sheeting in BioCorneum will keep the water from evaporating from the skin.

Are you looking for a laser treatment instead of a topical gel or cream to heal your scar? We have that too! With treatments of micro-needling or laser, pink scars can heal completely. The process works by stimulating your skin’s collagen, which will help heal the scar. If the scar is white, the pigment will never go back to normal, but you will still receive the benefits of tightening and smoothing the scar, making it less noticeable.
Your scar doesn’t have to haunt you forever. These treatments are proven to work effectively but safely: the best of both worlds!

Benefits of BioCorneum Scar Treatment

  • Applies quickly and dries to a clear, protective layer

  • Helps flatten raised scars and improve skin texture

  • SPF 30 helps prevent discoloration during healing

  • Water-resistant and comfortable for daily wear

  • Can be used on small or large areas of skin

  • Safe for use before, during, and after pregnancy

A recent clinical trial found that some popular scar creams performed no better than petroleum jelly. In contrast, BioCorneum uses medical-grade silicone sheeting technology—widely recognized for its ability to reduce redness, smooth uneven texture, and improve the overall appearance of scars.

Additional Scar Treatment Options

If you’re looking for alternatives beyond a topical gel, we also offer treatments such as microneedling and laser therapy. These options stimulate collagen production, which can help pink or red scars heal more completely. While white scars cannot regain their original color, they can still be smoothed and softened.

Your scar doesn’t have to be a lifelong reminder. With BioCorneum and other professional treatments, we can help you find a solution that’s safe, effective, and tailored to your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: What is BioCorneum Scar Treatment?

BioCorneum Scar Treatment is an FDA-approved silicone gel designed to improve the appearance of scars. It forms a breathable, protective layer over the skin, locking in moisture and helping scars become smoother and less visible. The formula also contains SPF 30 to prevent sun-related discoloration during healing.

Q2: How does BioCorneum silicone gel work on scars?

BioCorneum silicone gel works by creating a flexible, invisible sheet over the scar, which helps retain skin moisture and regulate collagen production. This process flattens raised scars, reduces redness, and improves texture over time, making it a preferred choice for post-surgery and injury scar care.

Q3: Can BioCorneum be used on old scars?

Yes, BioCorneum scar gel can be used on both new and older scars. While results are typically more noticeable on newer scars, consistent use on older scars can still improve texture, softness, and overall appearance. The silicone gel helps smooth and protect the skin during the healing process.

Q4: Is BioCorneum safe for all skin types?

BioCorneum is safe for most skin types, including sensitive skin. The medical-grade silicone is non-irritating and gentle enough for use on the face and body. It’s suitable for scars from surgery, burns, injuries, and acne, making it a versatile choice for comprehensive scar treatment.

Q5: How long should I use BioCorneum Scar Treatment?

For best results, BioCorneum Scar Treatment should be applied twice daily for at least 60–90 days. Larger or older scars may require longer use. Continued application helps maintain moisture balance in the skin, supporting optimal scar healing and preventing further discoloration or texture changes.
