Directions

Apply DermaScar twice daily – in the morning and evening. DermaScar must be applied to dry, intact skin.

If you have a scar from surgery, check that the wound has healed first before applying DermaScar.

This is typically 10 to 14 days after surgery. Before applying DermaScar clean the area first with mild soap and water and then pat dry.

Place a pea-size amount of gel at the tip of the scar and gently spread thinly over the affected area. A pea-size amount is enough to cover a 12cm scar. Allow the gel to dry for 1 to 2 minutes. Once dry, DermaScar may be covered with cosmetics or sunscreen.

Precautions

Always read the label. Follow the directions for use. If symptoms persist, talk to your health professional. DermaScar is for external use only – it should not be applied to open or fresh wounds, placed in contact with mucous membranes or too close to the eyes. DermaScar should not be applied over antibiotic skin preparations or other skin treatments or products. DermaScar should only be applied to closed wounds, and not applied to open or wet wounds. Do not use DermaScar in conjunction with other skin medications without first seeking the advice of your doctor.

  • Step 1

    Apply DermaScar twice daily - in the morning and evening. DermaScar must be applied to dry, intact skin. If you have a scar from surgery, check that the wound has healed first before applying DermaSar. This is typically 10-14 days after surgery.

    Before applying DermaScar clean the area first with mild soap and water and then pat dry. Important Information: A wound is normally healed when it is closed and dry. If the wound is wet or weeping it may not be fully healed. If you have any doubts check with your doctor. 

  • Step 2

    Place a pea-size amount of gel at the top of the scar and gently spread thinly over the affected area. A pea-size amount goes a long way, so just use enough DermaScar gel to thinly cover all of your scar.

    There is no added benefit of using extra gel or to apply a thick layer. All that will happen is that it will take longer to dry. If the scar is on your face be careful not to get any gel near or in your eyes. DermaScar is not for internal use.

  • Step 3

    Allow the gel to dry for 1 to 2 minutes. Once dry, DermaScar may be covered with. cosmetics or sunscreen. 

    To help achieve the full healing benefits of DermaScar, it is important that you apply DermaScar each morning and night for at least 2 months as scars can continue to form for up to a year after the initial injury.1,9

    It can take up to a month before visible improvements are noticed15 and for large scars treatment may need to be continued for longer than 2 months to achieve the best possible results.1
