Can’t silicone gels help atrophic/depressed scars from an at home TCA CROSS nightmare? (Photo)

Asked By:lissausa in West Hollywood, CA

I recently did a tca cross 100% at home. It got infected and now there are 2 large potholes/depressed scars on my nose .My dermatologist gave me a silicone gel for my scars. I read somewhere that silicone will stop collagen production. Did she recommend this product to me by mistake ? I figure I need more collagen production to raise up those depressed scars. It’s been three weeks since I’ve applied tca and i think i have a long way to go. Will this silicone gel (Silage) help?
