Guide: How do I choose the right product?

Guide: How do I choose the right product?

Are you also wondering how to choose the right treatment product for your particular scar? Below, we’ve listed some of the scars we get asked about most often, so you can find the product that’s best suited to the area you want to treat. There are many options available, and you’re always free to choose the product you feel most comfortable with.

All our products feature the same fantastic silicone technology, but in different forms. What may vary is the method of application, texture and form (stick/serum/patch).

ACNE AND PIMPLE SCARS

Our products work very well on acne scars and spots. It is important that the scars are active in order to achieve the best results. By ‘active scars’, we mean scars where the tissue is red, raised or deep, but not too old. If you have scars that resemble deep pits on your face (atrophic scars), our products can help to smooth the skin to some extent, but we also recommend that the treatment be supplemented with other treatments such as Dermapen or laser therapy. Laser treatment can also reactivate older scar tissue, so that treatment with our products produces even faster and more effective results.

The products contain no chemicals or fragrances that irritate or dry out the skin. Spot treatment with Pro-sil or treatment with the Dermasof Silk serum helps to smooth out scar tissue and even out skin tone where there is discolouration.

SCARS FROM SURGICAL PROCEDURES

Nowadays, many surgical procedures are carried out with a high degree of precision and care. If everything goes well, the scars are nothing more than fine white lines. However, there is a high risk of infection when the skin is subjected to major procedures. Scars may heal incorrectly and feel swollen and hard, or may become sunken. Uneven scars from surgical procedures can be reduced with Epi-derm; a range of silicone gel tapes specifically designed for scars resulting from various types of surgical procedures and operations. Epi-derm is clinically proven to both reduce existing scars and prevent new scar formation. The tape is thin and moulds to the contours of the body. Epi-derm can also be cut to size and adapted as required. As our silicone gel plasters remain on the treatment area for a longer period during the day, they can also deliver results more quickly than other products that need to be reapplied. However, we strongly recommend that treatment with Epi-derm be supplemented with Pro-sil for smoother and more effective results.

Breast surgery

For breast lifts and augmentations, Epi-Derm Mastopexy, Areopexy or Areola Circles are used. Which shape is used depends on the appearance of the scar and the method used during breast reconstruction. It is also possible to combine and adapt the different shapes according to the desired treatment area.

Minor scars from surgical procedures

For scars from minor operations, for example on the face (eyelids, ears, nose), it can be difficult to use tape. Pro-sil is therefore recommended for these treatment areas.

BURN INJURY

It is important to treat burn scars as they can affect the nerves, leading to a loss of sensation and restricting mobility. Usually, the skin becomes soft and supple, but sometimes a red, tight, raised and tender scar forms instead – known as a hypertrophic scar.

Scarring depends on how deep the injury is, whether the wound becomes infected, whether a skin graft has been performed, and how old you are. It is important to start treatment as early as possible, as soon as the skin is no longer inflamed. For burn scars, treatment with Dermasof Silk Serum is recommended, as it softens and smooths the scar tissue. For smaller scars, spot treatment with the Pro-sil pen is also effective.
