| Scar Cream Products - Do they work? |
|
Looking for a scar cream to improve the appearance of your scar and give your self-confidence a boost? A scar cream may not be the best type of treatment if, for instance, your scar is on your face or other exposed part of the body. More practical than a scar cream, a transparent, odorless gel can also help to improve your scars but not prevent you from wearing make-up or sunblock.
Kelo-cote® is a patented topical silicone gel for the management and prevention of abnormal scars in the form of hypertrophic scars and keloids. Unlike some scar cream products and many other scar products, it is 100% odor free and transparent. Once dry, Kelo-cote® can be covered with pressure garments, sun block or cosmetics.
Kelo-cote® features the patented Siliclear Complex™, a precise blend of bio-inert and bio-compatible silicone compounds, namely polysiloxane, silicone dioxide and non-volatile silicone components. It is suitable for the use on children or people with sensitive skin. The Siliclear Complex™ formulation enables the use of higher molecular weight, long chain polymers which will form a waterproof, semi-occlusive layer that adheres well to the surface of the skin. The volatile silicones allow for a spreadable consistency that will not damage the skin or cause pain during application. It is “smear proof” upon drying, and does not feel tacky or sticky to the touch. This silicone layer acts as a custom-fitted silicone sheet on the skin, providing all the benefits of silicone sheeting without the bulk, maceration or inconvenience.
Also available as a spray, Kelo-cote® is a lightweight, self-drying silicone gel for the management of scars. Kelo-cote® Advanced Scar Therapy has been shown to flatten, soften and smooth scars, relieve the itching and discomfort of scars, as well as reduce the discoloration associated with scars.1,2
Kelo-cote® Gel is available in tubes of 6g (0.2 oz), 15g (0.5 oz) and 60g (2 oz).
