How Scarless compares

How Kelo-cote, Dermatix Ultra and Strataderm differ

A quick side-by-side of three widely sold silicone scar gels and Scarless, taken from the same verified facts as the full comparisons below. Each product's details come from its manufacturer's information for one reference market and can differ by country. This is not a ranking: the right choice depends on the scar, the routine you can keep up, and your doctor's or pharmacist's advice.

How these comparisons are made

Each comparison uses the other company's own product information for a named reference market, published research, and Goodness Care's product documentation. Every statement about another product is traced to a source listed on its page. Pages are reviewed by a pharmacist before publication. Product details can change and may differ by country.

  • Scarless vs Kelo-cote

    A single gel vs a wider silicone product family

    Both are silicone scar gels. In the UK, Kelo-cote also comes as a UV gel with SPF 30 and as a spray; Scarless is a single gel that also lists squalane and a vitamin C derivative.

  • Scarless vs Dermatix Ultra

    Two silicone gels with a vitamin C ester

    Dermatix Ultra's German instructions for use describe siloxanes with a vitamin C ester. Scarless also lists silicones with a vitamin C ester, alongside squalane, an olive-derived emollient.

  • Scarless vs Strataderm and Stratamed

    A scar gel, plus a separate gel for open wounds

    Strataderm's EU leaflet describes a silicone gel for closed skin, applied once a day (twice on exposed areas); Scarless is for fully healed skin, twice a day, morning and evening. Stratamed is a separate product whose leaflet includes open wounds.

  • Scarless vs Cimeosil

    A scar gel vs a silicone gel-and-sheet range

    In the US, Cimeosil's range includes a silicone gel and silicone gel sheeting, described for keloid and hypertrophic scars. Scarless is a gel that lists squalane and a vitamin C derivative alongside its silicones.

  • Scarless vs RejuvaSil

    Both list silicone, squalane and the same vitamin C derivative

    Both list silicones, squalane and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, a vitamin C derivative; RejuvaSil's US list also includes emu oil. Similar ingredient lists do not mean identical results.

  • Scarless vs NewGel+E

    Vitamin C derivative vs vitamin E

    In the US, NewGel+E is a silicone gel that lists vitamin E (tocopherol); Scarless lists a vitamin C derivative and squalane. The wider NewGel+ range also includes silicone sheeting and a separate UV gel with SPF 30.

  • Scarless vs a silicone-only gel

    A multi-ingredient gel vs a silicone-only gel

    A comparison with a type of product, not a named brand: gels whose disclosed formula is silicone, without added skincare ingredients such as squalane or a vitamin C derivative, as defined on the page. Scarless combines its silicones with squalane and a vitamin C derivative.

  • Scarless vs silicone sheets

    A gel you apply vs a sheet you wear

    According to its Australian instructions, the silicone sheet Cica-Care is worn for at least 12 hours a day, then washed and reused; Scarless is a thin layer of gel applied twice a day, morning and evening. Where the scar is, and your daily routine, may decide which is easier to keep up.

  • Scarless vs Contractubex

    Two different types of scar gel

    Scarless is a silicone gel. According to its German product information, Contractubex contains onion extract, heparin and allantoin and is massaged in several times a day. They are different kinds of product, each with its own research.
