Kelo-cote® UV est helps prevent and treat hypertrophic and keloid scars while protecting them from the sun.

What is Kelo Cote UV Gel for treating scars with sun protection?

Kelo-cote® UV prevents and treats hypertrophic scars and keloids while protecting them from the sun.

Kelo-cote® UV is a patented silicone gel indicated for the prevention and treatment of hypertrophic and keloid scars.
Kelo-cote® UV is easy to use and well tolerated.
Kelo-cote® UV is a Class I medical device.
Quantity needed to treat and protect from the sun a scar 7.5 cm to 10 cm long.

Kelo-cote UV is a product specially designed to prevent and treat hypertrophic and keloid scars, while providing effective sun protection. This transparent silicone gel forms a breathable, watertight film on the skin, helping to reduce the appearance of existing scars while preventing the formation of new hypertrophic or keloid scars. For optimum results, we recommend applying Kelo-cote UV as soon as the wound has closed and healing has begun.

In addition to its healing properties, Kelo-cote UV offers SPF30 sun protection, making it an ideal choice for scars exposed to the sun. Exposure to UV rays can not only worsen the appearance of scars, but also lead to irregular pigmentation of the skin around the scar area. By using Kelo-cote UV, you protect your skin from sun damage while promoting optimal healing.

Applying Kelo-cote UV is simple and convenient. Simply apply a thin layer of gel to the clean, dry scar twice a day. Gently massage the gel into the skin until it is completely absorbed. Thanks to its light, non-sticky formula, Kelo-cote UV can be used under make-up and clothing without leaving residues or stains.

The results of using Kelo-cote UV are visible within the first few weeks of use, although optimal results may take several months. By continuing to apply the gel regularly, you can help improve the appearance of your scars and reduce their visibility. It's important to follow the instructions for use supplied with the product for best results.

In summary, Kelo-cote UV is a versatile product that not only helps prevent and treat hypertrophic and keloid scars, but also offers effective sun protection. Thanks to its transparent, lightweight formula, it's easy to use on a daily basis to promote optimal healing while protecting your skin from the harmful effects of the sun.

Why are UV rays to be avoided during healing?

Solar radiation is made up of a series of electromagnetic rays of different wavelengths. The shorter the wavelength, the greater their energy and the more harmful they are. Infra-reds are warming, while ultra-violet (UV) rays are aggressive.
Normal skin should be protected by sunscreen. UVB rays stop at the epidermis (vitamin D) and are responsible for sunburn. UVA rays penetrate to the dermis, damaging collagen and elastic fibers.
Skin with damaged epidermis and dermis is deprived of its natural defenses, and needs to be doubly protected.

There are 2 types of abnormal scars:

  • Hypertrophic scars are characterized by excessive production of fibrous tissue. These scars are favored by the formation of an excess fleshy bud induced by persistent local infection or foreign bodies. Keloids are a form of hypertrophic skin scarring, thought to result from an anomaly in collagen maturation. It comprises only type III collagen, unlike normal scars, which are made up of type I collagen. Certain factors predispose to keloid scars: pigmented skin, foreign bodies, certain areas (shoulders, décolleté)...
  • Pigmented or depigmented scars. Pigmented, brown scars are more common in people with colored skin, or on the contrary, depigmented, lighter skin.

We also offer Pranarom Aromaderm Cicarom Drying Lotion 40 ml, at the best price in our online pharmacy.

How do I use Kelo-cote UV gel?

  • Apply a thin layer of Kelo-cote® UV gel to the clean, dry scar 30 minutes before exposure to the sun, 2 times a day.
  • Leave to dry for 4 to 5 minutes
  • Remove excess if product has not dried

Recommended duration of treatment: 2 to 3 months
