Dermatix gel. Instructions, composition, price, analogues. The better ointments Kontraktubeks, Kelokot, Mapiform, Fermenkol

To mitigate rough scars and treat scars, dermatologists recommend the use of Dermatix Gel, an effective treatment for removing skin defects. Instructions for using the tool are described in the article.

The composition of the gel and the form of release

The active substances that make up the Dermatics gel are:

• polysiloxanes – oxygen-containing organosilicon compounds (silicone);
• silicon dioxide – a chemical substance that helps maintain the integrity of the structure of the main substance.

The product is available in the form of an odorless external gel in a thermoplastic tube of 6, 15 and 60 g.

There are 3 types of this name:

• Dermatics
• Dermatics Ultra;
• Dermatics “silicone dressing.”

The first two names differ only in the presence of vitamin C in the latter, which enhances the action of the active substance. The dressing is made of durable and breathable fabric, impregnated with the active substance of the gel.

Gel action

Dermatix gel, the instructions for use of which contain detailed information about the pharmacological action of the drug, is included in the group of dermatotropic drugs. Their action is aimed at improving the regeneration of skin scar tissue.

Dermatics:

• reduces the amount of scar tissue;
• protects the skin from external irritants;
• helps to produce enough collagen.

Silicone forms a film on the scar, which positively affects the formation of a light and invisible scar. The gel gradually smoothes damaged skin and evens out its color. Due to its moisturizing properties, the drug prevents the occurrence of itching and burning, accompanying the natural healing process.

The advantage of the drug Dermatix

This silicone-based gel is widely used in dermatology due to such advantages as:

• ease of use;
• minimal risk of adverse reactions;
• relatively inexpensive cost compared to expensive scar and scar removal operations;
• the possibility of use by pregnant women and children.

In medical practice, anticancer drugs are used by doctors everywhere – they are preferred to hormonal treatment or additional surgical intervention.

Indications for use of the drug

The gel is designed to correct scars and prevent their enlargement after:

• surgical plastic surgery of the body and face;
• burns;

  

• open deep wounds;
• aggressive acne or acne removal;
• transferred skin diseases (psoriasis, dermatitis).

The drug has the best effect with timely and constant use at the very beginning of anti-scar treatment.

It is also recommended to use this gel for preventive purposes, especially after dermatological diseases.

Rules for using Dermatics gel

The gel must be used only after complete healing of the wound.

The drug is applied every 12 hours as follows:

1. Disinfect the damaged area with an antiseptic.
2. Dry skin thoroughly.
3. Squeeze a small amount of gel onto the tip of your index finger.
4. Massage the skin with a substance.

A thin layer of gel promotes quick drying. When applying an excessive amount of the composition, it must be removed with a cotton pad or cloth. Despite the transparent substance, the drug may stain things .

Duration of use

Dermatix gel (the instruction for use of which does not contain detailed information about the courses of administration) can be used for as many days as needed to eliminate the severity and brightness of the scar.

The time the results appear depends on the severity of the wound:

1. Fresh keloid scars from burns require as long as possible (from 9 months or more) the use of an anti-scar drug, since the affected skin takes a lot of time to recover.
2. Large physiological scars from domestic injuries of moderate and severe degree should be treated for about 2-3 months.
3. Small physiological and cosmetic scars on the body, resulting from the fall or removal of moles, acne and other imperfections, are smoothed after about a month of using the gel.

The period of application of the gel depends on individual skin reactions. If the scar turns red when using the product within 7 days, then the active substance of the drug is not taken by the body. In this case, it is recommended to choose another drug.

Results of using the drug

When using this drug, patients notice such improvements as:

• smoothing the scar on one level with normal skin;
• the scar becomes less noticeable;
• the skin does not tighten or peel;
• itching and irritation on the scar disappear;
• the degree of convexity of scar tissue decreases.

The appearance of the results is largely dependent on the freshness of the scar. With old (from 3 years), protracted scars, a weak effect of the drug is observed.

Features of the use of funds

Dermatix gel, the instruction for use of which provides for use in pediatrics, can be used by pregnant women and children from 1 month.

To achieve maximum absorption and effect, it is advisable to use a special massage application technique, using circular movements and gentle pressure on the skin.

It is not recommended to apply the drug simultaneously with other dermatological agents, since the concentration of the active substance of the gel is significantly reduced, which negatively affects the effectiveness of the action. When mixing different gels and ointments, there is a high risk of adverse reactions.

The drug does not interfere with the use of cosmetics. After applying the gel to the face, it is necessary to wait until it is absorbed, and only then apply cosmetics.
