Silicone gel Dermatix 2x15 g, Viatris

A clear silicone gel that treats scars from surgery, burns and other injuries, dries quickly and helps to hydrate the skin. Dermatix flattens, softens and smooths scars, relieves pain, itching and associated discomfort and reduces redness associated with scar tissue. Dermatix gel is easily applied to all skin surfaces, including the face, joints and parts of the body that are subject to movement, and dries quickly to form a clear ‘film’. Dermatix has been developed using the same long-chain base polymers used in silicone gel films and is available in a tube. The gel contains polysiloxane.
Dermatix is ​​used for the treatment and prevention of keloids and hypertrophic scars (such as those resulting from general surgical procedures, traumatic wounds, and burns) after the wound has completely healed and the skin surface is intact. It is also used for immature, raised, red scars that are actively healing, often up to two years after wound closure.

How to use
Remove the cap from the tube and cut off the tip. Wash the affected area and pat dry, as Dermatix should only be applied to clean, dry skin. Gently massage a small amount of gel into the scar. If you apply too much product, gently remove it with a cloth to avoid staining your clothes. Once the Dermatix gel has dried, make-up and cosmetics can be applied. Apply twice a day, morning and evening, for at least two months. For persistent scars, continuous treatment may be necessary. Dermatix can also be used on children.
