Having a baby is the most natural of events, and brings a huge amount of joy. It is a true miracle, but it is no walk in the park! As women, we wear the scars of birth well, but for those who have experienced a caesarean section, these scars can be more impactful. They cause discomfort or pain and, in some cases, can feel unsightly, which in turn can have a psychological impact. 

NHS statistics report that 1 in 4 pregnant women in the UK will give birth via a C-Section. Scars may vary due to circumstance, skin type, and individual healing properties, but many women suffer for years with tightness or discomfort.

 

 Silicone sheets offer an easy and discreet way to reduce scar appearance.

Silicone sheeting has been on the market for over 30 years, and numerous clinical studies support its effectiveness in flattening and reducing the appearance of scars. Silicone gel sheets work by inducing hydration and regulating collagen production at the scar site to soften and flatten scars and restore healthy pigmentation to the skin.
