Scarfade Scar Gel has been helping improve the appearance of Scars since 1997, but our story really begins before that. Our company founder was involved in the development of the very first spreadable topical scar treatment product to hit the market in the late 1980’s. That product caught on very quickly and launched a brand new industry. In the past several years, a number of new products have become available, many of them claiming to be more effective due to ingredients not found in Scarfade. The truth is, our product contains a blend of dimethicones, which are the only ingredients that have been shown to be truly effective via sound scientific studies published in reputable medical journals.
We take quality very seriously. All of our products are manufactured under strict GMP conditions in an ultra clean state of the art facility, using some of the best equipment available. Quality inspections are conducted regularly throughout the manufacturing process and again at the completion of the process.
There are a lot of other ingredients out there that are good for the skin, but when used in scar treatment products, those same ingredients lead to a product that is less effective because their very presence means that the formula contains less dimethicone. We are continually researching new formulas containing other ingredients and comparing them side by side with our current formula. Not once have we come across a formula that is more effective.
Scar Treatment Tip #1 – Avoid Strain
Avoid putting strain on a wound site during healing: Putting strain on a wound site can slow and hinder the healing process and lead to more prominent scarring. Stretching the skin may open/ widen the wound and increase healing time.
I was diagnosed with a basal cell carcinoma last year, located on my forehead between my eyebrows. After having it removed I had approximately a 1 inch incision that had several stiches and after removal I had a substantial wound. My friend Nancy sent me Scar Fade and I used it diligently for a month and continued to use it as I felt it was needed. I am very pleased with the outcome!! Can’t even see where the incision was made! Thank you Nancy for introducing me to Scar Fade!
