Bepanthen Anti-Scar Gel 20 g

• Bepanthen® Anti-Scar Gel is a very good choice for the care of your red and
  raised scar. When a wound affects the deeper layer of skin (dermis) a scar is unavoidable but
  its final appearance can be optimized by proper support.
• Bepanthen® Anti-Scar Gel’s innovative formula has been specially designed to provide this
  support in order to help prevent forming and treat excessive scarring after surgery or injuries.
• Bepanthen® Anti-Scar Gel is used either:
  A) Alone in case of wounds closed since less than one month.
  B) Together with the Massage Ball provided with it in case of wounds closed since more than
  one month.

Bepanthen® Anti-Scar Gel is intended to be used on your wound only after it is closed in order to help prevent the formation of a red and raised scar(hypertrophic scar). Bepanthen® Anti-Scar Gel can also be used to smoothen, soften and flatten existing scars and reduces redness, tension and itching which often occur with scars.
