Product Information

For best results, apply Dermatix Ultra twice daily for 3 months on minor scars, and 6 to 9 months on burn scars or surgical scars. Dermatix Scar Reduction Silicone Gel has performed well in tests which have shown it will soften, smooth and flatten down the scar tissue which has formed at the site of the injury. Dermatix Scar Reduction Silicone Gel uses a combination of silicon dioxide and polysiloxanes to treat the scar tissue and improve its appearance. For scars older (as old as 2 years), it is advisable to continue using for longer until the positive effects stop being seen.

It is rare for Dermatix Gel to cause side effects, however, if you develop any redness or irritation on or around the application site you should stop using this product.

In contrast, topical silicone sheeting can be difficult to apply to scars in some areas, such as joints, and patient compliance can be reduced for visible scars. A specialist in burns and plastic surgery recommended starting treatment as early as possible in patients with burn wounds, within 7 days after the injury, and continuation for 3 months. If your symptoms get worse or do not disappear after a couple of days, speak to your doctor or medical professional to get their advice.
