Savlon Scar Prevention Gel 50g, First Aid Treatment to Help Soothe Minor Wounds and Burns and Reduce Likelihood of Scarring (Pack of 1, Packaging May Vary)

Product Information

A 2019 systematic review states that aloe vera and its compounds could improve wound healing. Overall evidence suggests it might be effective for wound healing of first and second degree burns. The review also indicates that aloe vera could help retain skin moisture and integrity while easing inflammation and preventing ulcers. The proliferative process is triggered by an environment of low wound pH, reduced PaO 2 and increased lactate (due to reduced blood supply to the wound). The following are some alternative methods and remedies people can try to make wounds heal faster: 1. Antibacterial ointment A moist healing environment has been clinically proven to aid and speed up the natural wound healing process. Elastoplast Wound Healing Ointment creates a breathable film that protects the wound from external influences while preventing the wound from drying out. This is clinically proven to promote faster wound healing and reduce the risk of scarring.

Honey has antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties. People have used the substance in traditional wound healing recipes for a long time.

People often use OTC antibacterial ointments for minor wounds, but they may not be necessary. A person may use petroleum jelly, which acts as a barrier to protect the wound beyond a waterproof bandage. 2. Aloe vera

Macroscopic evaluation of wound closure and quantitative measurement of wound contraction and re-epithelialization Yaghoobi, R., et al. (2013). Evidence for clinical use of honey in wound healing as an anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-viral agent: A review. . Wound healing is a natural physiological reaction to tissue injury. However, wound healing is not a simple phenomenon but involves a complex interplay between numerous cell types, cytokines, mediators, and the vascular system. The cascade of initial vasoconstriction of blood vessels and platelet aggregation is designed to stop bleeding. This is followed by an influx of a variety of inflammatory cells, starting with the neutrophil. These inflammatory cells, in turn, release a variety of mediators and cytokines to promote angiogenesis, thrombosis, and reepithelialization. The fibroblasts, in turn, lay down extracellular components which will serve as scaffolding. [1] One review of 27 animal model studies showed that antibacterial treatments played a positive role in helping wounds heal faster. However, the review noted that there was a high risk of bias in the findings.Chemical hydrolysis, enzymatic hydrolysis, acidic/ salting out, alkaline extraction and acidic extraction. This is major step forward in active wound care,” said Asst Prof Tay. “Our goal is to provide an effective and convenient wound-healing solution that improves outcomes for millions around the world.” The proliferative phase involves the production of highly vascular granulation tissue (a form of connective tissue) which fills the wound and provides a scaffold for further healing. Prevents dehydration, optimizes moisture microenvironment, fills cavity wounds, ease of application and cost effective.

Hekmatpou, D., et al. (2019) . The effect of aloe vera clinical trials on prevention and healing of skin wound: A systematic review. If the wound becomes swollen, reddened or painful, or doesn’t start to heal within a few days seek medical advice. People with diabetes often develop chronic wounds that are slow healing due to having compromised healing capabilities. These wounds frequently result in painful infections and can require limb amputation. Turmeric is a spice that comes from the plant of the same name. It contains curcumin, which has antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties.Prevents dehydration, optimizes moist microenvironment, fills cavity wounds, nontoxic, and nonirritating. In case of a dry wound Savlon Scar Prevention Gel Gel turns the dry wound into a moist one (“hydrogel” effect). The dry wound absorbs the water contained in Savlon Scar Prevention Gel helping reduce the likelihood of scarring. According to researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS), “chronic diabetic wounds are a significant global healthcare challenge”.
