Fagron Nourisil™ MD is an ultra-light, transparent, self-drying silicone gel. Silicone-based products are recommended as the first-line therapy for both the treatment and prevention of keloid and hypertrophic scars according to international guidelines. Scars generally result from surgical procedures, wounds, trauma or burns and silicone-based gels have proven efficacy to flatten, soften and smooth scars. Silicone gels are non-invasive and an evidence-based option for the management of scars, with an associated increase of patient acceptance and compliance. The occlusive benefits can also help with pain, redness, itching, and discomfort. Suitable for use on all skin types including sensitive skin and on children.
Caution: This gel cannot be applied to an open wound. It needs to have healed and for the skin to be intact.
Key ingredients include a unique blend of five Silicones and Vitamin E to maintain the skin’s moisture balance while improving the appearance of the scar. Elegant, non-greasy formula with a silky skin feel which dries to form a layer that hydrates and protects the scars. Free of preservatives, parabens and mineral oils. It is hygienic as it is applied directly from an airless dispensing system.
Dr Webster’s Recommendation: This is a medical-grade silicone scar gel that can be applied to all scars but only once the wound has closed and the skin is intact. There are many discussions about how to manage a scar for the best outcome but the silicone gel adds an invisible occlusive barrier over the scar to protect it, it increases hydration to normalize collagen production at the scar site and modulates growth factors. The duration of the treatment is generally 60-90 days. For larger or older scars, longer treatment may be required. It is easy to apply onto scars and all areas of the skin including the face and joints and leaves a subtle matte finish. Once the gel has dried on the skin, make-up and/or sunscreen can be applied on top of the gel. I would strongly recommend that sunscreen be applied over the silicone gel, on all exposed areas, to prevent pigmentation in the scar area. This silicone gel is good value considering it is 30g in an airless pump.
