About

Whether it’s a car accident, surgery or another sort of injury, many of life’s unfortunate events leave their marks as scars. While nearly everybody has one or more scars to remind them of such situations, some scars may be more critical than others. In addition to possible physical pain and discomfort, individuals may experience psychological impairment and reduced self-confidence, especially when scars are located on visible parts of the body.

Living with scars Whether it’s a car accident, surgery or another sort of injury, many of life’s unfortunate events leave their marks as scars. While nearly everybody has one or more scars to remind them of such situations, some scars may be more critical than others. In addition to possible physical pain and discomfort, individuals may experience psychological impairment and reduced self-confidence, especially when scars are located on visible parts of the body. Hansaplast Scar Reducer Hansaplast Scar Reducer is a transparent, self-adhesive patch made of polyurethane. Products made of this material have been used for years in professional wound care. The patches contain no active ingredients (pharmaceuticals) that may cause side effects. They are a safe and efficient way to effectively reduce raised and coloured hypertrophic scars or keloid scars. Learn more about scar treatment and prevention here. Key benefits - Discreet transparent patch - Flexible and breathable material for high wearing comfort - Easy-to-use, can be cut to size - Water-resistant - Very skin-friendly How does Scar Reducer work? The transparent polyurethane patch is designed to build a semi-occlusive barrier which improves hydration of the scar tissue. It also increases temperature in the scar tissue. This helps to activate the skin’s own regeneration process and supports the remodelling of the scar. The scars become flatter, lighter and softer. Clinical Studies Clinical studies have shown positive results after 8 weeks of consecutive use of at least 12h a day. First results are noticeable after 3 to 4 weeks. Using the patch for longer than 8 weeks may further improve the appearance of the scar. Interested in knowing more?

FAQ

1. How do scars form?

Scarring is a natural part of the healing process after tissue is damaged. Following and injury, wounds go through distinct phases of wound healing.  The wound healing process finally leads to the maturation phase, during which the scar tissue reorganizes. It can take years, depending on the size and depth of the original wound.

2. Which types of scars is the SCAR REDUCER suitable for?

Clinical studies have shown Hansaplast SCAR REDUCER to be effective in the case of raised and coloured hypertrophic scars and keloids. Scars become flatter, lighter and softer. Hansaplast/Elastoplast SCAR REDUCER can be used for both new and old scars, on the face or body.

11. Does the Hansaplast SCAR REDUCER work with caesarean section scars?

The Hansaplast SCAR REDUCER can be used on a caesarean scar if it is raised and coloured. No restrictions for use are known for nursing women. In case of questions, please contact your doctor or pharmacist.

12. Can I use the Hansaplast SCAR REDUCER to avoid scars?

If the skin has been ruptured you cannot avoid a scar, but you can make the scar less visible. Treatment can be started as soon as wound healing is completed. This means, that the wound has completely closed and sutures have been removed in the case of a surgical intervention.

13. Can the Hansaplast SCAR REDUCER lighten the colour of my scar?

SCAR REDUCER does not contain any colour-altering ingredient. The redness of a scar is an indication of agitation of the scar tissue. Treatment with the SCAR REDUCER balances the regeneration process resulting in a reduction of redness.
