Avene Cicalfate+ Remodeling Scar Gel 40ml is a silicone-rich scar care gel designed for sensitive skin that aims to refine the appearance of recent or established scars on the face and body, including post-surgical, post-dermatological and traumatic marks. The formula combines a 25% Dermo-Silicone Complex with Avène Thermal Spring Water and hydrating agents to help smooth scar texture, support skin remodelling and reduce visible redness over time. Clinical studies report visible improvement in scar appearance after around three weeks of regular use, which offers reassurance if you are seeking a targeted, dermatologically backed solution for cosmetic scar concerns.

Key Features

• Targeted scar remodelling: High 25% Dermo-Silicone Complex works in synergy with a massage-ready gel texture to help refine thickness, firmness and uneven texture of recent, old and hypertrophic scars for a smoother, flatter look.
• Soothing, hydrating care for sensitive skin: Avène Thermal Spring Water, glycerin and sodium hyaluronate help calm discomfort, support the skin barrier and keep the scar area comfortably moisturised while remaining fragrance-free and suitable for sensitive and post-procedure skin.
• Lightweight, invisible daily gel: Clear, non-greasy gel forms a breathable protective film that facilitates massage, absorbs quickly under clothing or make-up and integrates easily into an existing skincare routine for consistent, long-term scar care.

Is Avene Cicalfate+ Remodeling Scar Gel suitable for all skin types?

The gel is formulated for sensitive skin and is suitable for adults and children from one year of age, including those who have undergone dermatological or surgical procedures. The fragrance-free, minimalist formula with Avène Thermal Spring Water aims to minimise irritation, making it appropriate for a wide range of skin types seeking gentle scar care.

What kinds of scars can this gel help with?

Avene Cicalfate+ Remodeling Scar Gel is designed to act on recent, older and hypertrophic scars, including those resulting from surgery, dermatological treatments and minor trauma on the face or body. The silicone-based complex supports visible improvement in parameters such as thickness, redness and overall skin comfort around the scarred area.

How long does it take to see visible results on scars?

Clinical data from Avène indicates that many users experience visible improvement in the appearance of scars after about three weeks of consistent twice-daily application, with continued gains over several months. Results can vary depending on scar age, location and individual healing, yet the studies offer a useful guideline if you are planning your long-term skincare routine.

Can Avene Cicalfate+ Remodeling Scar Gel be used alongside other skincare or dermatological treatments?

The lightweight, non-occlusive texture is designed to sit comfortably within a broader routine, so it is often used alongside gentle cleansers, sunscreens and other post-procedure products recommended by healthcare professionals. For complex scarring or concurrent dermatological treatments, many brands advise consulting a doctor or dermatologist to ensure the gel complements your overall treatment plan and aligns with professional aftercare guidance.
