Silicone Scar Reduction Sheets by Nearly Me
RETOUCH® Silicone Scar Reduction Sheets are soft, non-sterile, sheets of medical-grade silicone that are worn over a scar to help reduce the appearance of hypertrophic and keloid scars. They conform to the body and can be cut into any shape.
RETOUCH® works on old and new scars. When worn immediately after an injury has healed, it can even help reduce the formation of hypertrophic or keloid scars.
Silicone sheeting can help reduce the height of raised scars, help lighten the color of darkened scars, and help increase the elasticity of tight scars. These types of scars often cause pain and itching due to the firmer, non-elastic nature of the healed skin.
Because RETOUCH® Silicone Scar Reduction Sheets are washable and re-useable, they may be more cost effective than many other scar-reduction products on the market. They are flexible and thin, so they conform to the body and are usually undetectable under clothes. They are semi-adherent and stay in place, but can be taped or wrapped for added security

Arlin Dawson
Arlin was a three-year-old girl who received deep second-degree thermal scald burns sustained in a kitchen spill in January of 1999. Arlin suffered burns on her arm, shoulder, and collarbone area. An elasticized garment was used to help hold the RETOUCH® sheets in place. Arlin's scar was almost three months old when she began wearing RETOUCH® sheets. She wore the sheets from April 20, 2000 to June 22, 2000. In July 2000, Dr. Donald Parks confirmed evidence of scar maturation - that is, the scar had become softer, flatter, and lighter in color. The results were only after two months of wearing RETOUCH® sheets.
