KELOSCAR BIOGEL: how it works and what makes it different
Silicone gel is widely recommended as a first-line option for scar management. It forms a thin, protective layer that helps maintain skin hydration and supports the improvement of scar appearance over time.
KELOSCAR BIOGEL combines medical-grade silicone with TurmeromeCell™, an innovative ingredient containing a liposomal extract of Curcuma longa and vitamin E, recognised for their antioxidant and skin-conditioning properties.
Together, they bring hydration, protection and soothing comfort into one formulation, designed to help manage new and existing scars resulting from:
- Surgery
- Burns
- Cuts and other skin injuries
KELOSCAR BIOGEL is suitable for adults and children aged 3 years and older.
How can KELOSCAR BIOGEL help?
KELOSCAR BIOGEL creates a thin, protective silicone layer over your scar. This helps keep the skin hydrated and supports the natural scar-healing process.
With regular use, it may help:
- Improve the appearance of scars
- Reduce redness
- Relieve itching
- Ease dryness
- Reduce feelings of tightness or discomfort
The gel is transparent, odourless and dries quickly, making it easy to include in your daily scar-care routine, including gentle scar massage if recommended by your healthcare professional.
When can I start using KELOSCAR BIOGEL?
Only use KELOSCAR BIOGEL once the wound has completely healed and the skin is fully closed.
Do not use it on:
- Open wounds
- Broken skin
- Irritated skin
- Infected areas
If you are unsure whether your wound has healed enough, speak to your healthcare professional before starting treatment.
How do I apply KELOSCAR BIOGEL?
- Wash and dry the scar and the surrounding skin.
- Apply a thin layer of KELOSCAR BIOGEL over the scar.
- Allow the gel to dry for about 5 minutes.
For best results:
- Apply twice daily (morning and evening).
- Continue treatment for at least 60 to 90 days.
- Larger or older scars may need a longer treatment period.
- If you continue to see improvement after 90 days, keep using the product as advised.
Consistent daily use gives the best results.
