KELO-COTE UV Gel treatment scars with sunscreen

Kelo-cote® UV is used to prevent and treat hypertrophic scars and keloids while protecting them from the sun.

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 the persistence of a local infection or foreign bodies. Keloid is a form of hypertrophic cutaneous scar that is the result of an abnormal maturation of collagen. It consists only of type III collagen unlike the normal scars made of type I collagen. Some factors predispose to keloid scars like: pigmented skins, foreign bodies, certain zones (shoulders, décolleté) ...

Pigmented or depigmented scars . Pigmented, brown scars are more common in people with colored skin, or on the contrary depigmented, lighter.

Why are UV rays to be avoided during wound healing?

The solar radiation consists of a series of electromagnetic radiations of different wavelengths. The shorter the wavelengths of the solar ray, the more energy they have and the more harmful they are. The infra-red thus have a role of warming and the ultraviolet (UV) a role of aggression.
Normal skin should be protected by sunscreen. UVBs stop at the epidermis (vitamin D) and are responsible for sunburn. UVA penetrates to the dermis and causes the collagen and elastic fibers to deteriorate.
An altered skin in the epidermis and the dermis is devoid of its natural defenses and must be doubly protected.
