Comfortable under clothes
I waited until my incision had fully closed before starting. The sheets sit so softly under my jeans, no more rubbing on the waistband.
Easy to keep up
I just put one on at night and forget about it. After a couple of months I do think my scar looks calmer than it did.
Felt like a step
Once the incision had closed I wanted something specific for the scar. This felt like the right next step rather than just waiting.
Real stories from women like you
This was my first proper beach holiday since having my daughter and I had been worrying about wearing a bikini for months. I had been using Veliccio every night for about three months by then, once my incision had fully closed. The scar still shows of course, but it looks softer and feels less raised than it did, and honestly I just felt more comfortable in my own skin. Small win, but I cried a bit when I put the bikini on.
i have been using the Velicico C section tape for over four months now, mostly overnight. The change has been so gradual that I almost did not notice it, but when I look at photos from when I started, the scar is clearly softer and lighter.
It has reminded me that consistency really does help, I will keep going hopefully
Just opened my second pack and starting fresh with a new piece. I finished the first one over the past couple of months and my scar feels noticeably softer than when I started. I am not expecting it to disappear and I know consistency is the thing that actually matters with this kind of routine. Going to keep going for a few more months and see how it looks by the end of the year.
I started Veliccio when my baby was about eight weeks old, once my midwife confirmed the incision had fully closed. Honestly the only reason I have stuck to a routine at all is because it is so simple. I just put one on at night while I am feeding and that is it. With everything else going on with a newborn, I needed something that did not require any thought. The scar feels less tight now and the area is more comfortable under my clothes.
It's been 15 weeks postpartum since my incision had fully closed. I am now around eight months postpartum and the scar has changed gradually but noticeably. It feels softer, looks lighter, and does not catch on my underwear like it used to.
Picked up another box so I do not run out mid-routine. Scar feels softer than it did and I want to keep going through the next few months without a break.
My little one is nearly 3 months now and I had spent so much of that time focused on her and not really on my own recovery. Once I started using Veliccio in the evenings, it became this small quiet moment in my day that was just for me. The scar has gradually become less red and less raised, and I feel like I have finally given myself a bit of the same care I have been giving her. It has made more of a difference than I expected.

Your Veliccio Journey
Scar care is gradual, not overnight. Here's how many women find it goes over the first few months, once the incision has fully closed. Every scar is different, so yours may look a little different too.
Settling in
A gentle start while your skin gets used to it and the routine becomes a habit. Many begin to notice less rubbing and the area feeling softer. Still looks like a scar at this stage, and that's normal.
Calmer, quieter
Many describe the scar looking calmer, less raised, less red than when they started. Rarely dramatic, but the routine is what makes the difference.
Part of the past, not the day
Silicone scar care guidance suggests around 90 days to start. Many carry on for ongoing comfort and a softer, flatter-looking scar over time.
A year from now
A year from now, the scar is still there. You just don't think about it the way you do today.
You get dressed without the little routine of adjusting and checking. It just stopped, somewhere along the way.
You catch sight of it and it's just part of you now, not a doorway back to that day.
It looks calmer and softer than it does today, and it stopped taking up space in your head.
You started something for yourself, and stuck with it, when almost nothing was about you.
Common Questions
Veliccio is designed to be used only once your C-section incision has fully closed and any scabs have healed naturally. If you are unsure whether your scar is ready, please check with your midwife, GP, or another healthcare professional before starting. Veliccio is not for use on open wounds or stitches.
Silicone is one of the most established forms of at-home scar care and is widely used in scar management. Veliccio creates a soft protective layer over the scar that supports hydration and helps protect the area from clothing friction. With consistent use over time, this can support a softer, flatter-looking scar. It is not a quick fix, and results vary from woman to woman.
It depends on what you are looking for. Oils and creams can feel moisturising but tend to wear off and need frequent reapplication. Silicone sheets stay in place for hours, sit comfortably under clothes, and work passively while you go about your day. Many women use silicone as their main scar care step once the incision has fully closed.
Yes. Silicone scar care can still support older scars, though scars that are more mature may take longer to respond. The most important factor is consistency. If you are starting later, simply give your routine more time and try not to compare your progress to anyone else's.
Scar care works gradually, so we suggest thinking in weeks and months rather than days. Many women notice their scar feels softer and less tight within the first few weeks, with more visible changes happening over the following months of consistent use. Every scar is different, and progress varies.
If you notice any redness or irritation, remove the sheet and give your skin a break. You can build up wear time gradually as your skin adjusts. If irritation continues, please stop use and speak with a healthcare professional.
With consistent use over weeks and months, Veliccio can help support a softer, flatter-looking scar and may help reduce the look of redness over time. It will not remove or erase a scar, and progress varies depending on the age of your scar, your skin, and how regularly you wear it. Many women use Veliccio for the comfort and protection it offers as much as the appearance, less rubbing under clothes, and a scar that feels less in the way day to day.
