Abstract

Plastic surgeons play a major role in prevention of occurrence of unsightly scars, as well as management of the scars that have already occurred. Recent guidelines suggest the use of silicone therapy as a non invasive first line prophylactic for the prevention and management of both keloid and hypertrophic scars. In this article we would like to describe our experience with the use of silicone sheet for scar management. Keyword: Silicone Sheet, Scar.
