Instruction for use
1. For optimum results preferably start Scarban Velvet Touch silicone gel treatment immediately after wound closure (after removing sutures and the disappearance of any scabs)
2. A small amount of silicone gel per treatment is sufficient. For optimal therapy, apply a small amount of silicone gel to the scar twice a day with a smooth motion.
3. Reapply Scarban Velvet Touch silicone gel after intensive activity (sports) and contact with water (showering, swimming).
4. If desired, Scarban Velvet Touch gel can be combined with make-up after drying.
Duration of use
Use Scarban Velvet Touch silicone gel as long the scar is elevated, red or causes complaints. It takes at least 3-6 months for a scar to normalize.
When used correctly, one vial contains enough for treatment lasting several weeks. The duration of use depends on the size of the scar to be treated. Multiple packs may therefore be necessary in the case of long-term therapy.
