How Does
Xscar & XSCAR KIDS WORK?

When we designed Xscar we were looking to create the best scar treatment possible using evidence based science. We used our expertise in dermatology and plastic surgery to create a unique formulation that will reduce the appearance of scars. We combined silicone gel with antioxidants, hydrating oils and vitamin E to create an optimal wound healing environment and give you great looking skin.

Why Silicone?

Silicone forms an ultra thin sheet over a scar and works 24 hours per day. It has been reported to improve scars by an 86% reduction in texture, 84% in color and 68% in height of scars.

Silicone gel exerts several scar repairing actions including:

1. It increases hydration of stratum corneum and thereby facilitates regulation of fibroblast production and reduction in collagen production. It results into softer and flatter scar. It allows skin to "breathe".

2. It protects the scarred tissue from bacterial invasion and prevents bacteria-induced excessive collagen production in the scar tissue.

3. It modulates the expression of growth factors, fibroblast growth factor β (FGF β) and tumor growth factor β (TGF β). TGF β stimulates fibroblasts to synthesize collagen and fibronectin. FGF β normalizes the collagen synthesis in an abnormal scar and increases the level of collagenases which breaks down the excess collagen. Balance of fibrogenesis and fibrolysis is ultimately restored.

4. Silicone gel reduces itching and discomfort associated with scars, leading to less trauma from rubbing or scratching.

THE SCIENCE of SCARRING

Every wound on human skin results in a scar. It is the final stage of the healing process. The appearance of a scar depends on many variables beyond our control including body site, depth of injury and genetics. It also depends on some factors that we can control, most importantly proper wound care throughout the various stages of healing.
This is where ScarlessMD comes in.

How a Wound Heals

Wound healing occurs in 3 stages:

the inflammatory stage, the proliferative phase and the remodeling phase.

The inflammatory stage occurs during the first 5-6 days, followed by the proliferative stage lasting up to 4 weeks and then scar remodeling which spans from 4 weeks and takes years.

Immediately after an injury, the initial response is bleeding. The body’s response to bleeding, called hemostasis, stops the bleeding and starts the healing by attracting an army of inflammatory cells. These cells begin to build the framework for new blood vessels, collagen and skin formation.

The inflammatory phase leads to the proliferative phase. In the proliferative stage, cells called fibroblasts lay down the foundation for new skin. Blood vessels are built and then new skin cells migrate in to rebuild.
After the proliferative stage, the wound undergoes constant alterations, known as remodeling. In remodeling, collagen is broken down and rebuilt. The wound may contract and tighten. Remodeling is an ongoing, long-term process that ultimately determines how a scar looks and feels.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Directions:
After cleared and instructed by your doctor, (usually 1-2 weeks after suture removal), begin by applying a generous coat of Xscar lotion to the affected area. Gently massage into the area and repeat this process for a total of 3x a day. After 1 month, increase the strength of the massage and apply a circular motion with your finger or applicator. Ideally, you would apply and massage the gel in 3x a day for 3 minutes each time. This may help reduce the thickness and the red color of your scar over the course of the scar maturation (typically 6-12 months after injury). We recommend you continue using Xscar consistently for one year to maximize your results.

Recommendations:
We recommend using a sunblock (spf 30 with Zinc) when outside for a prolonged time or to wear protective clothing. Make sure to reapply after excessive sweating or swimming.

Warnings:
For external use only. Keep out of eyes. Rinse with water to remove. Stop use and ask a doctor if rash occurs. Keep out of reach of children.

One month after ScarlessMD treatment began.

Safe for kids, ScarlessMD helped heal Karina's scar under her right eye (your left). After 2 months the scar is almost completely gone.

Treatment started two weeks after suture removal.

4 months after ScarlessMD treatment began, the scar is virtually gone.
