Skinuva Scar Cream

Skinuva® is a revolutionary scar cream providing fantastic results in minimal time. What makes it so effective? It is backed by science and uses highly selective Growth Factors which are shown to be twice as effective as silicone cream from our clinical trials.  

Skinuva Scar comes in two sizes:

The 50 mL/1.7 fl. oz Skinuva® Scar is ideal for larger scars, greater than 6 inches in size, including facelift scars, breast lift or breast reductions scars, abdominoplasty, body lift scars, brachioplasty scars.

The 30 mL/1fl. oz Skinuva® Scar is ideal for smaller scars, less than 6 inches in size such as small facial scars.

It is recommended to apply Skinuva® twice a day for a minimum of 3 – 6 months.

Skinuva Scar® is best for treating newer scars, typically ones that are less than a year old. Scars that are still red, raised, thickened, tender, itchy, and/or darkly pigmented are the best scars to use Skinuva Scar on.

• Growth Factors: Selective Growth Factors are the ingredients that elevate Skinuva Scar above all other scar treatment products. Our physician innovators tested and chose the most effective synthetic growth factors in the development of Skinuva Scar.  Scar healing in fetuses occurs due to a complex upregulation and downregulation of certain growth factors. By utilizing such knowledge, Skinuva's team of scientists, clinicians, stem cell experts, and chemists formulated its first product in its Growth Factor Pipeline: Skinuva® Scar. They reduce redness, pigmentation, and thickening of the skin and also promote the correct type of collagen production needed for scarless wound healing.

• Silicone cream: Silicone cream has been a key ingredient in treating scars for decades. By creating a barrier on the skin, silicone cream promotes a hydrated environment for the skin to heal, and creates optimal conditions for Skinuva Scar's other products to take effect.  
  
  
• Centella Asiatica: An herbal ingredient, this has long been used in Asian cultures for its exceptional wound-healing properties.
  
  

• Hyaluronic Acid: A Hyaluronic Acid is used widely in skincare products to promote hydration as well as healthy cell function and healing, and helps the growth factors in Skinuva Scar reach the skin more efficiently.

• Vitamin C: This offers a trio of benefits, acting as a protective antioxidant, reducing hyperpigmentation and promoting collagen production.

• Aloe Vera: This Aloe Vera also helps create a hydrating environment as well as soothes the skin with its anti-inflammation properties.
  

• What makes Skinuva® Scar so unique as a scar cream?

  Skinuva® Scar is a physician designed and clinically tested scar cream that uses highly selective growth factors within a silicone cream matrix to help improve the appearance of scars.

  Unlike other scar products on the market, Skinuva® Scar is the only one that uses selective growth factors and other ingredients that have been shown to help improve the appearance of scars using peer-reviewed medical literature.

  Rigorous clinical studies have shown that Skinuva® Scar improves the appearance of scars nearly 2x more effective when compared to silicone cream.

• Are growth factors safe?

  There is adequate peer-reviewed medical literature evidence to support the safety and efficacy of growth factors in addressing skin conditions and anti-aging. Growth factors have been routinely included in many high-end skin care lines over the past 20 years, with no issues of long term complications or adverse reactions.*

• Why were growth factors derived from human cells (i.e. placenta, foreskin) not used? 

  The growth factors used in Skinuva® Scar are not human, stem-cell, or plant derived. We understand there is still controversy with this topic, and therefore only highly selective medical grade synthetic growth factors that are made under sterile conditions in a laboratory are used in the product.

• Does Skinuva® Scar have SPF?

  We are in development for a scar product that contains SPF but want to ensure the SPF does not impact the efficacy of Skinuva® Scar to reduce the appearance of scars. However, sunscreen may be applied on top of Skinuva® Scar without affecting the healing process.

  We have specifically formulated Skinuva® Scar to allow the user to safely apply sunscreen (and cosmetics) after application. Note: Please allow Skinuva® Scar to dry before applying sunscreen and/or cosmetics.
