There is a number of silicone products on the market which effectively treat and prevent all types of scars including those resulting from general surgery, trauma, chronic wounds, burns, bites, and acne. Products I recommend to my patients is Strataderm. International clinical recommendations on scar management highlight a primary role for silicone gel sheeting and intralesional corticosteroids in the management of a wide variety of abnormal scars. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12142678 Juvista is still years away from helping any patients.
