CICALFATE+ SCAR GEL
Description
A tailored formula with a hydrating consistency that facilitates massage.
Cicalfate+ Scar Gel reduces scars* thanks to its active ingredients selected to:
- protect and moisturize the scar;
- promote good tissue reorganization;
- improve skin comfort.
*Helps improve the appearance of scars.
Cicalfate+ Scar Gel is indicated for recent* scars in adults. It can be applied to the face and body. Suitable for children and babies. After surgery or a dermatological procedure, follow your doctor's advice to take care of your scar.
*With reformed epidermis.
Tested under dermatological and pediatric control on 50 subjects with recent scars, 2 applications per day for 3 months.
Visibly improves the appearance of scars from the 3rd week (improvement in 100% of subjects).
At the end of the test the product was also evaluated by the users:
- instantly soothes (from the first application);
- helps reduce the evidence of the signs (98% of subjects);
- leaves skin soft (98%), elastic (98%) and hydrated (98%).
Furthermore, they indicated that the product spreads easily (100%) and that its consistency facilitates massage (100%).
High tolerability.
Without perfume.
How to use
Apply Cicalfate+ Scar Gel 2 times a day, massaging gently in the direction of the scar.
To determine the maturity of the scar, you need to apply pressure and evaluate the time it takes for the skin to regain color; that is, press the scar and time how many seconds it takes for it to regain color. Normally it takes about 3 seconds: the less time it takes, the less mature the scar will be.
1. If the scar regains color in less than a second after the procedure (usually up to 1 month), the scar is not yet mature. Apply the product to the scar and the surrounding area using light pressure. Use your index finger to gently apply the product in the direction of the scar.
2. If the scar regains color within 1 or 2 seconds, perform a "palper-rouler" by delicately taking the skin between thumb and forefinger and sliding it upwards, in the direction of the scar, until the product is completely absorbed (approximately 5 minutes).
3. If the scar regains color within 3 seconds of the procedure (usually 3 months), it means that it is mature. Proceed with a skin-stretching massage using your index and middle fingers in the direction of the scar, so as not to enlarge it, until the product is completely absorbed (about 5 minutes).
