Product Description
Product Description:
Advanced Scar Control is a high-silicone scar gel that creates an occlusive barrier to help prevent new scar formation and improve the tone and texture of existing scars. Ideal for incisions associated with surgical procedures, as well as scars caused by wounds such as burns, scrapes, and cuts, this breakthrough treatment for scars features 95% silicones, 0.5% allantoin, 2% fatty acids, and 1% ultralight silica to protect and soothe post-procedure skin. With an elegant, invisible texture, this protective scar treatment creates an ideal environment that helps prevents new scar formation and improves the appearance of recent scars by up to 29%.
Several factors such as age, skin tone, hormones, and location can impact the formation and appearance of scars. Regardless of underlying factors, reducing transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is essential to provide the ideal environment for improving the appearance of all types of scars. An invisible, comfortable occlusive scar gel can help the skin retain hydration, in turn preventing scar formation and protecting the wound from environmental damage that can lead to changes in the texture, color, and the overall appearance of scars.
How to Use:
Once daily, or as needed, apply a small amount evenly to affected area. Do not apply to broken skin.
Complete your regimen with a SkinCeuticals sunscreen. When used in conjunction with SkinCeuticals Advanced Scar Control, a broad spectrum sunscreen helps shield the skin from UV rays that can negatively impact scar healing by increasing discoloration and uneven texture
