Dermatrix - helps maintain a uniform skin hydration, improving the appearance of scars. It has the ability to smooth and soften the protruding scars, to relieve the associated itching and discomfort, and to reduce the scarring of the pigmentation of the skin that is observed during the formation of scars.
Dermatix gel is easily applied to all skin areas, including face, joints and folds, quickly dries and forms an invisible film.
Dermatix has a softening and keloidolytic effect on the affected areas. This is the first line of therapy created for patients with scars. So, silicone is recommended by international experts to influence scar tissue. The use of Dermatrix is currently the only non-invasive method in the prevention and treatment of keloid and hypertrophic scars. The drug confirmed its pharmacological effect from the point of view of evidence-based medicine. This silicone gel is designed for the convenience of people suffering from the presence of scars and scars, approved by the FDA as a drug,equivalent to the use of silicone coatings. Dermatix gel is based on an inert silicone. What is especially important is that it acts on a superficial level, without having a systemic effect on the patient's body. This makes possible the use of funds from a wide contingent of people. Dermatix can be used even in severe diseases, in which the use of many dermatological preparations is contraindicated, and this dignity has made it very popular.
Dermatix silicone gel is able to maintain a natural balance of skin moisture, greatly improving the appearance of scars. It smooths and softens the protruding scars, relieves itching, eliminates discomfort. Often when the scars are formed, a pigmentation disorder occurs - the dermatrix also reduces these manifestations. It is easy to apply to all parts of the body, including the face, joints and folds. Forming an invisible film, the gel dries very quickly.
As a rule, with damage to the epidermis, scarring does not occur. But with a trauma to the dermis or subcutaneous layer, the likelihood that there will be a noticeable scar is significantly increased. The nature of the scar is determined by a number of factors, and the most important of these is the nature of the lesion, as well as localization.Also on the formation of the scar affect the genetic characteristics. With the help of Dermatrix, a good occlusion of the rumen is carried out, and the level of hydration of the horny layer of the skin is significantly increased. Occlusion leads to the fact that collagen fibers tend to reorient parallel to the epidermis plane. This is the main mechanism that allows to achieve leveling scars.
