Bepanthen

Scar Gel

Bepanthen® Scar Gel is a silicone gel whose modern composition is based on the latest scientific findings. The scar gel is used for the treatment of fresh scars after wound closure as well as for the treatment of older scars (including hypertrophic scars). When used regularly over several months, Bepanthen® Scar Gel helps to prevent red and raised scars, e.g. after an injury, burn or operation. For scars that are already older, Bepanthen® Scar Gel can help them to become flatter and softer. Redness, a feeling of tightness and itching as frequent accompanying symptoms of scars are also alleviated by the application.

Application

How is Bepanthen® Scar Gel used?
Bepanthen® Scar Gel should only be used when the wound has completely closed.
Apply Bepanthen Scar Gel twice a day (e.g. in the morning and evening). Bepanthen scar gel is suitable for adults and children.
Up to 1 month after wound closure:
Use only the scar gel. Apply the scar gel so that a thin film is formed. Then let the gel dry for a few minutes.
From 1 month after wound closure:
Bepanthen scar gel is equipped with a massage roller. Massage the scar gently (with only light pressure) with the massage roller. Then apply the scar gel so that a thin film is formed. Then let the gel dry for a few minutes.
Bepanthen® scar gel should be used over a period of at least two months.
Reapply the gel after you have bathed, showered or exercised extensively.
When must you not use Bepanthen® Scar Gel?
Do not use on open wounds or mucous membranes. Do not use near the eyes.
Do not use if you suffer from an allergy to any of the ingredients.
For external use only.

Note

Bepanthen® Scar Gel is free of preservatives and without perfume.

Ingredients

Bepanthen® Scar Gel is a silicone gel formulation that forms a breathable film under which the scar is sealed and protected as if in a moist chamber. Dexpanthenol (provitamin B5) with its moisture-binding effect under the protective silicone layer provides optimal conditions for scar healing.
