Excess scar formation as a result of surgery or skin trauma can present a serious clinical challenge. Even minor insults to the skin such as ear piercing, razor nicks or skin biopsy may result in keloid or hypertrophic scars that can lead to patient dissatisfaction and, at worst, permanent disfigurement. Gelcare Occlusive Dermal Therapy has been demonstrated to reduce hypertrophic scarring and keloids following surgery, trauma and burn injuries, reducing the need for painful and costly steroid injections and scar revision. Gelcare Occlusive Dermal Therapy is reusable up to 40 times however most patients find that because of reapplication necessary for hygiene, replacement of the product is necessary with fewer uses. Gelcare can be trimmed into desired sizes and does not contain silicone or latex. Made in the USA.
