Silagen Rapid Recovery System

Bruising and swelling: a separate product family

Rapid Recovery is Silagen’s line for post-procedure bruising and swelling — topical gels and an oral supplement. It is not scar care, and it is not part of any TRC supplement program.

  • Topical gels + oral supplement
  • For bruising and swelling
  • Separate from scar care

Topical and oral — two different things

Silagen presents them as a “system,” but they are used differently and carry different labels.

Questions to ask your surgeon

  • Is a topical gel appropriate — where and from when?

  • When should I stop any supplements before surgery?
  • What bruising or swelling should make me call you?

Frequently asked questions

Is Rapid Recovery the same as scar care?

No. Rapid Recovery addresses bruising and swelling; silicone gels and sheets address scars.

Is this part of a TRC supplement plan?

No. It is not bundled with HSL LABS or any TRC program.

Can I use the gel and the supplement together?

Silagen markets them together. Whether that suits you is a question for your surgeon.
