Hexilak Ultra Gel 15gm

Hexilak Ultra Gel is used for the following:

• Managing elevated scars from surgical procedures

• Helping soften and flatten burn-induced scars

• Reducing scars resulting from cuts and scratches

• Lightening and softening scars caused by insect bites

• Treating hypertrophic and keloid scars on both the face and body

• Make sure your skin is clean and dry.

• Apply a thin layer of the gel to your scar using your fingertip.

• Allow the gel to dry for 3-5 minutes to create a protective film over your scar.

• For best results, use consistently for 8-12 weeks on new scars, and 3-6 months on older scars. Remember to consult your doctor for more personalised advice.

Hexilak Ultra Gel is applied topically.

Hexilak Ultra Gel is made up of multiple active ingredients that work together:

• Cyclomethicone NF-5: This silicone compound forms a protective barrier on your skin while allowing it to breathe. Its role is to regulate fibroblast production and collagen synthesis thereby softening scars.

• UTMF Ceramide I: Ceramides are lipids that reinforce your skin's natural barrier improving hydration and repairing damaged, aged skin.

• Dermaxyl (Acetyl Hexapeptide-25): This peptide stimulates skin repair processes to fight skin damage and visibly reduce the depth and surface area of scars.

• Polydimethylsiloxane: This silicone polymer acts as a skin protectant and conditioner.

• Silicone Dioxide: This component improves the texture and feel of the gel.

• Elastomer-10: It enhances the spreadability of the gel and creates a flexible film on your skin.

• Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Being a potent antioxidant, it helps reduce hyperpigmentation, protects the skin from photodamage, and promotes collagen production for skin repair.

• Keep Hexilak Ultra Gel stored at room temperature.

• Protect the gel from direct sunlight and heat sources.

• Ensure that the tube is tightly closed when not in use to prevent exposure to air and moisture.

• Keep this medicine out of the reach and sight of children.

• Always check the expiry date before use and avoid using if it's past this date.

• Since Hexilak Ultra Gel is used to manage scars, it's beneficial to follow a diet rich in vitamin C and zinc which are known for their role in skin healing. Include foods like citrus fruits, bell peppers, shellfish, and seeds in your meals.

• Adopt a lifestyle that minimises further skin damage. This includes wearing protective clothing or using a high-SPF sunscreen when going outside, as sun exposure can darken scars. Regularly moisturise your skin to maintain its elasticity and promote better healing.
