People prone to problem scarring are advised to not get tattoos or piercings, but sometimes a person doesn’t find out how badly they scar until it’s too late. Raised, discolored scars can distort a tattoo or piercing site, even if the person applying the needle did everything correctly. Certain people are genetically prone to problem scarring, particularly those of Asian, Latino or African-American descent.

The ReJuveness approach to tattoo and piercing scar management centers on the application of silicone sheeting, often in conjunction with the topical application of skin-identical lipids, and in some cases, derma needling to speed the remodeling process. Scientific research into scar management indicates that topical application of silicone – such as ReJuveness® Original Silicone Sheeting – is the most effective scar management treatment for the widest number of patients.
