  Dimethicone - Long term side effects? Wrinkles?

  Posted by Zink on June 1, 2017 at 6:32 pm

  Just wondering if silicones, particularly 350 cps dimethicone, could have any negative long term effect. I haven’t found any but some of you might know from experience, I’ve seen some articles that fear monger about wrinkles, but haven’t seen any substantial evidence.

  I’ve never seen any evidence that silicones would have this negative effect.  Sounds like more fear marketing by “natural” brands.

  First I ever heard of that must be nonsense and why the 350.used the 100 in baby lotion, which also had adult use, for several decades- monitored complaints from field which never showed anything to that effect.

  Spill-over fear from alleged bad side effects due to ruptured breast implants that contained medical-grade silicone gel.
