Caesarean Section scar care guide for midwives and health care professionals
Caesarean Section is becoming increasingly common. This guide has two aims. First, to review the guidelines and recommendations available for health professionals to advise women. Second, to evaluate the biology and mechanism of scar formation and healing; recommendations on the care of caesarean section scars; possible treatment options; and potential concerns.
How does Nourisil™ MD Silicone Scar Gel help c-section scars
In the UK, over 170,000 babies are delivered via Caesarean Section each year*.
Nourisil™ MD Silicone Scar Gel is a silicone scar gel which contains 5 types of silicone. The use of silicone-based products for the management of scarring is well established and considered to be the ‘gold standard’.
When the skin is damaged during a c-section it releases too much moisture. In turn the body creates excess collagen which causes a scar. Nourisil™ MD Silicone Scar Gel creates a silicone barrier that enables the skin to release moisture at normal levels reducing the amount of collagen produced in the scar area. This reduces the severity of a scar’s features.
