NewGel+, has two products that have been tested and are effective ways to reduce and remove the appearance of a scar.
Silicone gel sheeting is specifically formulated and is a 100% medical grade creation that is proven to reduce, flatten and smooth scars – both new and old. The sheets are self-adhesive and come in clear and beige.
The clear sheeting is more flexible, and the beige is more durable. The sheets are equally effective and whichever your patient selects is completely optional and dependent upon personal needs. These silicone sheets are worn over the scar. They are comfortable and will not hinder day-to-day activity.
The second option from NewGel+ is the NewGel+E Advanced Silicone Gel, available in a tube.
This is a spreadable silicone gel with added vitamin E. While the silicone sheets are considered to be the “first choice for scar management,” according to NewGel+ “the NewGel+E silicone gel has been developed for use when sheeting would be inconvenient.”
The spreadable gel is applied topically to the scarred area. This gel dries fast and creates a flexible coverage on the scar that can be used when a silicone sheet would be inconvenient. It is recommended by the experts at NewGel+ to use both products so that there is 24 hour-a-day-coverage on the scarred area. When not using the sheets, it is suggested to be using the topical gel and vice versa.
Never use the two at the same time, because the gel makes it difficult for the silicone sheeting to adhere to the skin.
NewGel+ promises that proper use will yield results in as soon as 3-7 weeks and the best results are seen after 3 months.
