EKRAN SOFT SILICONE GEL 50 GM

How EKRAN SOFT SILICONE GEL 50 GM Works

• EKRAN SOFT Silicone Gel is a topical treatment specifically formulated to manage and improve the appearance of scars, both old and new. Its effectiveness lies in its unique blend of ingredients, primarily silicone, which work synergistically to create an optimal healing environment. Upon application, the gel forms a thin, transparent, and flexible layer over the scar. This layer acts as a protective barrier, shielding the scar from chemical, physical, and bacterial invasion, preventing further aggravation and allowing the skin to heal properly.
• The silicone in EKRAN SOFT also helps to hydrate the scar tissue. Scars often suffer from moisture imbalance, either being too dry or too moist, both of which can hinder the healing process. By creating a semi-occlusive barrier, the silicone gel regulates moisture levels, ensuring the scar remains adequately hydrated. This hydration is crucial for collagen remodeling. Collagen is a protein that provides structure to the skin, and in scars, collagen fibers are often disorganized, leading to raised, thickened, or uneven textures. The controlled hydration provided by the silicone helps to soften the scar tissue and promote a more organized collagen structure, leading to a smoother and flatter appearance over time.
• Furthermore, EKRAN SOFT Silicone Gel helps to reduce excessive collagen production. One of the primary reasons scars become raised and hypertrophic is the overproduction of collagen during the healing process. The silicone in the gel helps to regulate the activity of fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen synthesis. By normalizing fibroblast activity, the gel helps to prevent the excessive buildup of collagen, reducing the thickness and elevation of the scar.
• In addition to its physical effects, EKRAN SOFT also helps to alleviate the discomfort associated with scars. Scars can often be itchy, painful, or sensitive to the touch. The silicone gel can help to soothe and protect the nerve endings in the scar tissue, reducing itching and discomfort. The occlusive barrier also protects the scar from external irritants, further reducing sensitivity.
• The 'SOFT' in EKRAN SOFT refers to the gel's smooth and non-greasy texture. This allows for easy application and comfortable wear under clothing or makeup. The gel dries quickly, leaving behind a silky feel, without any sticky residue. This ensures that the treatment is both effective and convenient to use, encouraging consistent application, which is crucial for optimal results. Regular and consistent use of EKRAN SOFT Silicone Gel, as directed, can significantly improve the appearance, texture, and overall comfort of scars over time.

EKRAN SOFT Silicone Gel is generally well-tolerated, but some individuals may experience the following side effects: * **Skin Irritation:** Mild redness, itching, or burning sensation at the application site. * **Allergic Reactions:** Rarely, some individuals may experience an allergic reaction characterized by rash, hives, or swelling. * **Dryness:** In some cases, the gel may cause dryness of the skin around the application area. * **Acne:** Very rarely, application to acne prone skin can cause acne breakout. If any of these side effects persist or worsen, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

• EKRAN SOFT SILICONE GEL is typically used externally, so the concept of a 'missed dose' doesn't directly apply. Continue using the gel as directed by your doctor or as per the product instructions. If you forget to apply it at the regular time, just apply it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next scheduled application. In that case, skip the missed application and continue with your regular schedule. Do not apply extra gel to make up for a missed application.

• Keep EKRAN SOFT SILICONE GEL 50GM away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store EKRAN SOFT SILICONE GEL 50GM at room temperature.

• **Consistent Application is Key:** For optimal results with Ekran Soft Silicone Gel, apply a very thin layer evenly over the affected area twice daily – once in the morning and once at night. Consistency is crucial; make it part of your daily skincare routine for at least 8-12 weeks, or as directed by your healthcare provider. This sustained application allows the silicone to properly hydrate and protect the skin, promoting healing and reducing scar appearance.
• **Clean and Dry Skin Before Application:** Before applying Ekran Soft Silicone Gel, ensure the affected area is clean and completely dry. Gently cleanse the skin with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser and pat it dry with a soft towel. Avoid applying the gel on broken skin or open wounds. A clean and dry surface ensures the gel adheres properly and forms a protective barrier.
• **Massage Gently for Enhanced Absorption:** After applying a thin layer of Ekran Soft Silicone Gel, gently massage the area in a circular motion for a few seconds. This helps improve blood circulation and enhances the absorption of the silicone, maximizing its effectiveness. Be careful not to apply too much pressure, especially on sensitive skin.
• **Suitable for Various Scar Types:** Ekran Soft Silicone Gel is suitable for various types of scars, including hypertrophic scars, keloids, and scars resulting from surgery, burns, acne, or injuries. It can be used on both old and new scars. However, consult your doctor or dermatologist if you are unsure whether the gel is appropriate for your specific scar type.
• **Safe for Long-Term Use and Sensitive Skin:** Ekran Soft Silicone Gel is generally safe for long-term use and is well-tolerated by individuals with sensitive skin. It is non-toxic and does not contain any harsh chemicals. However, if you experience any irritation, redness, or itching, discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider. Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin before widespread application, especially if you have a history of skin sensitivities.

• EKRAN SOFT SILICONE GEL 50 GM is for external use only and is unlikely to interact with food. However, it is generally recommended to avoid applying it to areas that may come into direct contact with food or before handling food. If accidentally ingested, consult a doctor.
