Accepted Answer

Dermatix®
Silicone gel for scar reduction
What is Dermatix gel?
Dermatix is a topical silicone gel that is transparent, dries quickly and helps
maintain the skin’s moisture balance, while aiding the management of scarred
skin surfacesresulting from surgery, burns, and other injuries. Dermatix has been
shown to flatten, soften and smooth scars, relieve the itching and discomfort of
scars as well as reduce the discoloration associated with scars. Dermatix gel is
easily applied to all areas of the skin, including the face, joints and flexures, and
dries rapidly to form an invisible “sheet”.
Dermatix was developed using the same basic long chain polymers as topical
silicone gel sheeting, but it is available in a tube. It contains polysiloxane. The gel
is available in tubes of 15 g and 60g.*
What is Dermatix gel used for?
Dermatix is used for the treatment and prevention of keloids and hypertrophic
scars (such as those resulting from general surgical procedures, trauma wounds
and burns), after the wound has healed and the skin surface is intact.
How should Dermatix gel be used?
Cut the tip of the tube. Wash the affected area and pat dry. Dermatix should only
be applied to clean, dry skin. Gently massage a small amount of Dermatix into the
scar. If you apply too much gently wipe away any excess with a tissue in order to
avoid staining of clothing. Apply once in the morning and once at night. Once
dry, Dermatix may be covered with cosmetic blush.
Dermatix can also be used on children.
When should Dermatix gel not be used?
● Dermatix should not be applied to open or fresh wounds.
● Dermatix should not be placed in contact with mucous membranes, or applied
too close to the eyes.
● Dermatix should not be applied over otherskin treatments without the advice
of your doctor.
Are there any possible unwanted effects of Dermatix gel?
Rarely, the gel may cause redness, pain or irritation to the skin. If you are
concerned about these or any other unwanted effects, consult your pharmacist
or doctor.
How should Dermatix be stored?
● Keep out of reach of children.
● Store below 25°C and away from heat sources.
● Do not use after the expiry date ( ) printed on the pack.

You can get more information about Dermatix from your pharmacist or doctor.

Question 4

Does this reduce redness of scars?

Accepted Answer

used dermatix gel on a new operation scar and 3 months after the operation the redness has gone and the scar is nearly invisible. I don't know whether it would work so effectively on an old scar.
