The triple-benefit formula of Contractubex® Gel
- prevents excessive scarring
- preduces redness and itching
- improves elasticity and softness
You can start using Contractubex® Gel as soon as the wound has closed or the stitches have been removed, because the sooner you begin with the scar treatment, the better the chances of positively affecting scar development. Reddening fades after just a few weeks, and continued treatment with Contractubex® Gel and its triple-action formula allows further improvements in appearance to be achieved. The scar becomes more elastic and flatter. Treatment may well take 3 – 6 months depending on the extent of scarring, as scar tissue regenerates very slowly. Be ambitious and stay on course – it’s worth the effort!
Application
Apply Contractubex® Gel only to wounds that are already closed. Avoid contact with eyes, the inside of the nose or mouth and other mucous membranes.
Start at the centre and work towards the edges, massaging the gel gently into the scar.
Continue with a small, circular motion until Contractubex® Gel is completely absorbed.
Scar treatment needs patience, as the injured skin takes time to heal. After about 4 weeks, a reduction of redness can usually be observed; after two months, the scar tissue gradually becomes lighter, more elastic and flat.
The safety and tolerability has been shown in numerous clinical studies. Small children and even babies can be treated.
The treatment can also work on scars that are older. With older scars, Contractubex® Gel should be massaged in 3 times daily for at least 6 months.
