Gels (Unreinforced Silicone Elastomers): The largest product form in the medical
grade silicone market
Silicone gel is increasingly being used in various medical applications which range from
very soft gels for prosthetic and implant applications, to very sticky gels for topical and
transdermal wound care applications. Silicone gel has proved to be very effective for scar
treatment and cause 86% decrease in texture, 84% decrease in color, and 68% decrease in
the height of scars. These are also used in other medical applications, such as skin
coverings, comfort pads, and others. One of the latest advancements is the use of silicone
gel to manufacture silicone gel sheets, which are used for the treatment of deep scars that
need to be protected and covered.
