Scar Treatment with Silicone Gel

 

What is a scar?

Scars are areas of fibrous tissue that replace normal skin after injury. A scar results from the biological process of wound repair in the skin and other tissues of the body. Scarring is a natural part of the healing process. With the exception of very minor lesions, every wound (after accident, disease, or surgery) results in some degree of scarring.
Scars can be unsightly, causing both discomfort and embarrassment. This can lead to a lack of personal confidence. It can also cause people to try to cover up their scars in a multitude of ways. Typically, this is by either using clothing or makeup.

Genova’s Scar Gel

Genova Skincare addresses scar issues through it’s innovative gel. As the name suggests, this product comes in the form of a clear silicon-based gel, which is very easily spread onto the skin. The gel is an optimally balanced formulation. It helps to flatten, soften, lighten, and reduce the visible appearance of scars. Importantly, the formula also provides a protective layer over the scar, keeping the area hydrated and reducing redness.

Genova's Active Ingredient - Vanistryl

Genova gel incorporates the active ingredient Vanistryl. This highly charged ingredient increases the skin’s elasticity and helps to visibly reduce the signs of scars.

Using the Gel

To use the formulation, simply pump a small amount onto your fingertip. Apply the gel directly to the surface of the scar. You’ll notice that the formulation will easily spread onto the desired area. Simply use your finger with sweeping strokes to apply the formulation. The gel will dry typically within 30 seconds of its application. Importantly, the gel will go on clear. It will not stain any clothing after it is applied. Once dried, the gel will protect a scar from external elements, creating a barrier of protection. We suggest that for continued benefit, you apply the gel to any required area of skin twice per day. This should be at morning and night time.

The benefits of the Gel

You’ll find that continued use of the gel will have significant benefits to your skin. Not only will it protect your scar on a daily basis, but it will also help to flatten, soften, lighten, and reduce the visible appearance of your scar over time. Ultimately, this will improve your confidence with your skin and it will also produce results that you’ll love.
