— Silicium G7® · Clinical-Premium · Original formula
Topical application of organic silicon, step by step.
The Silicium G7® topical range applies organic silicon directly to the area. The standard clinical guideline is a thin layer 3-4 times a day with massage. For specific joints, the occlusion protocol with film multiplies the penetration of the active ingredient.

Local action where you need it.
The Silicium topical range is formulated with liquid organic silicon as the base of the emulsion (2.500 mg/L concentration). Fast penetration and targeted action on skin, joints, tendons, or areas with localized discomfort.

The correct protocol multiplies transdermal absorption and avoids mistakes that leave the active ingredient on the surface without reaching the connective tissue.
-
01
Clean and dry the area well
Clean, dry skin allows better adherence and penetration of the active ingredient. Avoid applying to sweaty skin or skin with creams or soap residue.
-
02
Spread a thin layer
A thin layer penetrates better than a thick one. Spread the gel with your fingertips over the target area (joint, tendon, skin).
-
03
Massage with circular movements
Gentle massage (1-2 min) warms the area, opens microcirculation, and helps the active ingredient diffuse into deeper layers.
-
04
Wait for full absorption
Let the gel absorb (5-10 min) before getting dressed or applying another product. The skin should be matte, not sticky.
Covering with film boosts penetration.
For specific joints with discomfort (knee, elbow, wrist, ankle), the occlusion protocol with cling film multiplies the penetration of the active ingredient into depth.
When to apply occlusion
Overloaded joints after exertion · specific tendinopathies (tennis elbow, painful shoulder) · areas with recurring discomfort · at the end of the day or during night rest.
How to do it properly
- Apply the gel following the 4 previous steps (clean, thin layer, massage, minimum absorption).
- Cover the area with kitchen cling film, without tightening.
- Leave on for 1 to 5 hours (or overnight if the area allows it).
- Remove the film and, if any residue remains, spread it with a gentle massage.
When NOT to apply occlusion
On skin with open wounds, active eczema, or skin reactions. On the face and mucous areas. If you notice itching or irritation after a few minutes, remove the film immediately.
Where is organic silicon gel applied? Six common areas.
The gel is compatible with all skin types, including sensitive skin. These are the most common areas and the recommended massage pattern for each one.
Joints
Knee, elbow, shoulder, wrist, ankle. Circular massage over the area with discomfort. Compatible with occlusion.
Tendons
Achilles, patellar, supraspinatus, epicondyle. Longitudinal massage following the tendon fiber.
Tired legs
From ankle to thigh, in an upward direction. Focus on the calves. Ideal at the end of the day or after exercise.
Reactive skin
Eczema, flaking, dryness. Thin layer with very gentle massage. Soriaskin Gel for more reactive skin.
Scars
Over a closed scar (not open). 1-2 times/day for 8-12 weeks. Improves skin elasticity.
Stretch marks
Apply daily to the affected area with massage. More effective on recent (red) stretch marks than on white ones.
What people ask us most often.
Six common questions about how to take organic silicon.
The standard dose is 15 ml twice a day, preferably before meals. For Silicium G7® Original, it is also possible to take 30 ml in the morning on an empty stomach as a single dose. Each package includes a measuring cup. Dilute in water or take directly, according to preference.
Liquid formulas are ideally taken before meals (10-15 minutes), because absorption of orthosilicic acid is optimal on an empty stomach. Capsules with associated vitamins or minerals are also taken 10 minutes before meals; those taken in the morning are taken with a glass of water.
The connective tissue response is slow. In skin, the first changes are observed between 6 and 8 weeks; in joints, from week 2 to week 6 of consistent use; for hair, the cycle is longer (4-6 months). Polonini 2019 documented maximum results at 150 days (5 months).
Yes. Documented synergy with hydrolyzed collagen (improves endogenous synthesis), magnesium (muscle and bone function), vitamin C (cofactor of prolyl hydroxylase), and vitamin D (bone mineralization). No known interactions with prescribed medications or therapies, according to accumulated pharmacovigilance.
Yes, and it is the most complete approach. The oral route provides systemic silicon to all tissues; topical application of the gel acts locally on the applied area, offering additional support for skin, specific joints, or overworked tendons.
Yes. NOAEL 2.000 mg/kg/day in OECD GLP studies, with no relevant adverse effects in more than 23 years of pharmacovigilance. Excess silicon is eliminated in urine as silicic acid without accumulation. EFSA approved the active ingredient as a Novel Food in 2016 (EU Regulation 2017/2470). During pregnancy, breastfeeding, or medical treatment, consult your healthcare professional.
Topical use works well with the other routes.
The gel acts locally; the oral route provides systemic silicon. Using both together shows the best results.
