Dermatix is a topical silicone gel that is transparent, dries quickly and helps maintain the skin’s moisture balance, while aiding the management of scarred skin surfaces resulting from surgery, burns, and other injuries. Dermatix has been shown to flatten, soften and smooth scars, relieve the itching and discomfort of scars as well as reduce the discoloration associated with scars. Dermatix gel is easily applied to all areas of the skin, including the face, joints and flexures, and dries rapidly to form an invisible “sheet”.
Dermatix was developed using the same basic long chain polymers as topical silicone gel sheeting, but it is available in a tube. It contains polysiloxane. The gel is available in tubes of 15 g and 60g.*

Instructions
Step 1: Remove the product from its package. If necessary, use scissors to trim the product to size. It should extend slightly beyond the area of the scar.
Step 2: Peel away the paper protective liner and save it for later use. Place the product “sticky side” down, directly on the scarred area. Keep the product in place for at least 12 hours and up to 23 hours per day.
Step 3: At least once a day, wash the scarred area and both sides of the product with mild soap and water. Do not use a soap that contains moisturizers, lotions, or oils. A plain basic soap is recommended. Rinse the product thoroughly to remove all traces of soap. Allow the product to air dry or pat it dry with a lint free towel before reapplying. Between uses, store the product on the paper protective liner.

Continue to increase the wearing time until a comfortable maximum has been reached. If you continue to have a problem, stop use and consult your physician.
