Silicone gel and silicone occlusive sheeting are widely used at present for the treatment of hypertrophic and keloid scars. In recent studies the possibility was raised that static electricity generated by friction activated silicone sheeting could be the reason for this effect, and that it can, with time, cause involution of hypertrophic and keloid scars. Objective of this study was to test this hypothesis and to observe weather a continuous and also an increased negatively charged static electric field will shorten the treatment period. A silicone cushion was developed with the purpose of increasing a negative static-electric charge to accelerate the regression process.
