NewMedical NewGel Plus Silicone Strip For Scars

More Information

• Ingredients:
  - Medical Grade Polymerized Siloxanes (Silicone Gel) with a Lycra (Spandex) backing
• Directions:
  - Begin using NewGel+E when scar is closed and/or sutures have been removed. Do not use on any open wound
  - Remove NewGel+ from the package. If needed, cut and trim so that it extends at least 1/2" (1cm) beyond the area to be treated
  - Wash and dry the area being treated every time you apply NewGel+
  - Peel off release liner and apply NewGel+, adhesive side down, directly on area being treated
  - Make sure the scar site is free of creams, lotions and ointments (including NewGel+E gel) as they will cause NewGel+ to lose adhesiveness
  - Although NewGel+ is self-adhesive, if needed, it can be secured with our NewGel+ Tape or NewGel+ Elastic Netting
  - NewGel+ sheeting should be worn every day for 6 to 23 hours. For best results it can be worn continuously but should be removed once per day for inspection of the site and to allow the site to be washed and dried
  - NewGel+ should be worn every day for a minimum of 2 months. Additional improvement may occur with continued use up to 6 months
  - When NewGel+ becomes dirty or loses adhesiveness, wash gently with tap water and mild hand soap then air-dry before reapplying
  - If you have highly sensitive skin, begin using NewGel+ for 4 hours per day for the first 4 days to determine any possible reaction. Thereafter, increase usage time
  - NewGel+ should be replaced when it deteriorates, disintegrates or will no longer stick. Each piece should last 3 to 4 weeks
  - Keep packaging for storage of the product when not in use
• For Optimal Results:
  - Use NewGel+ sheeting as your primary treatment and NewGel+E gel when sheeting would be inconvenient or hard to secure
  - Do not use both products at the same time
• Precautions:
  - Do not begin using NewGel+ until your scar site is completely closed (sutures removed, no oozing)
  - As with any product applied directly to the skin, some type of reaction (rash) may occur in people with sensitive skin
  - If a reaction occus, wash and dry the area and reapply the product for shorter periods
  - If a rash or serious itching continues, discontinue use and consult your doctor
  - Keep out of reach of children
