Product Introduction

Fixderma Kelocepa Silicone Gel is a specially formulated topical scar-care product designed to help improve the appearance and texture of scars. It combines a silicone-based gel system with skin-conditioning ingredients, including Centella Asiatica Extract, Allium Cepa (Onion) Extract, Niacinamide, Ceramides and Omega Plus.

Its silicone-based formulation is designed to form a protective layer over the skin, helping maintain hydration and supporting a favourable environment for scar management. The lightweight formulation is intended for convenient application without leaving an excessively greasy feel.

Kelocepa is intended for people looking to manage the appearance of different types of scars, including surgical scars, injury-related scars and raised scars. Consistent use on fully healed skin, according to the product directions, is important. Results vary depending on scar type, age, size and individual skin response.

Uses

Fixderma Kelocepa Silicone Gel may be used as part of a scar-management routine for:

• Surgical scars after complete wound healing.

• Scars resulting from accidental injuries.

• Hypertrophic scars (raised scars).

• Keloid scars, as an adjunct to dermatologist-directed treatment.

• Post-procedure scars after dermatological or cosmetic procedures, once the skin has healed.

• Improving the appearance and texture of existing scars.

• Supporting skin hydration around scar tissue.

Important: Silicone gel is particularly well established in the management of raised scars. It does not guarantee removal of scars or prevent every type of scar from developing.

How to Use

As per the directions printed on the packaging:

1. Clean the affected area gently and ensure that the skin is completely dry.

2. Apply a small amount of Kelocepa Silicone Gel directly to the scar.

3. Gently massage or spread the gel over the scar area.

4. Allow the formulation to dry and form a protective layer.

5. Apply two to three times daily.

6. Protect the scar from sun exposure by applying sunscreen during the daytime.

Important application advice:

• Apply only to completely healed skin.

• Do not apply over open wounds, fresh surgical incisions or infected skin.

• Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

• Allow the gel to dry before applying cosmetics or clothing over the area.

How It Works

Kelocepa combines silicone technology with skin-conditioning ingredients to support scar management.

1. Silicone technology (Cyclopentasiloxane and Dimethicone)

Silicone forms a semi-occlusive protective film over the skin. This helps reduce transepidermal water loss and maintain hydration. Improved hydration can help regulate the scar environment and improve the appearance, softness and flexibility of raised scars over time.

2. Centella Asiatica Extract

Centella Asiatica contains triterpenoid compounds, including asiaticoside and madecassoside. These compounds are studied for their effects on skin repair and collagen-related processes. Their presence does not establish a guaranteed clinical scar-reduction effect in this finished formulation.

3. Allium Cepa (Onion) Extract

Onion extract is commonly used in topical scar-care products. It has been studied for its potential effects on inflammation and scar appearance, although clinical evidence for individual onion-extract products is variable.

4. Niacinamide

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) supports the skin barrier, helps improve skin hydration and contributes to overall skin conditioning.

5. Ceramide Complex

Ceramides, cholesterol and phytosphingosine help support the skin's natural lipid barrier and maintain moisture.

6. Omega Plus

The combination of sunflower, corn, macadamia, olive and sesame oils provides emollient and skin-conditioning properties.

Quick Tips

• Avoid excessive application.

• Use sunscreen to protect exposed scars from UV damage.

Fact Box

Interaction with Drugs

No specific drug interactions are listed on the packaging.

Since Kelocepa is a topical silicone-based formulation, clinically significant systemic drug interactions are not expected with normal application to intact skin.

Use caution when:

• Applying alongside topical retinoids, exfoliating acids or medicated creams on the same area.

• Using prescription corticosteroids or other scar treatments simultaneously.

• Applying over skin treated with recently prescribed dermatological procedures.

Allow other topical products to be used according to the treating dermatologist's instructions. If you are receiving treatment for keloids or hypertrophic scars, discuss the combination with your dermatologist.
