A therapeutic silicone composition and a delivery device operable for the self-administration of the therapeutic silicone composition to the skin. Silicone gel compositions are known in the art to promote wound healing and reduce scarring. The therapeutic silicone composition of the present invention contains a silicone gel formulated with inert thickening agents and/or carriers sufficient to provide a firm, semisolid silicone gel material that substantially retains its shape when extruded from a tube. When topically applied to hypertrophic tissue, the composition, which is applied as a light film to cover the tissue, is transparent and substantially dry, obviating the need for an occlusive dressing.
