Raised Scar Treatment - GK Cream Hypertrophic Scar Cream
Improving the healing process in wounds, lesions and preventing scar
formation
20 gram
A plant extract which is effective
in regulating the production of dermal connective tissues. Helps to reduce
abnormal scars, uneven skin surface and cellulites. Effective as a
preventive measure against skin damage, especially after an outbreak of
acne, chickenpox and other wounds which causes the collagen level of the
skin to collapse.
 |
GK Cream contains 7 grams
of Centella Asiatica extracts per 100 grams. Centella's Saponins
(including Asiaticoside, Madecassoside and Madasiatic Acid) seem to
reduce scar formation in wound healing by inhibiting the production of
connective tissue as they simultaneously close the wound. |
It is effective as a preventive
treatment for acne wounds that has the potential develop into keloids. It
has been used in medicine for centuries both topically as well as
systemically for wound healing as well as fighting leprosy. Centella
contains Vallejin, a bitter principle, and a mixture of Triterpenoid
glycosides - the most abundant being these active principles that
dissolves the waxy coating of the bacillus that causes leprosy and skin
tuberculosis and the Asiaticosides also help heal skin lesions by
promoting an increased blood supply to the connective tissue.
Centella Asiatica has long been
recognised for its healing activity. The principal modes of action of GK
Cream ointment are related to the ability of Centella Asiatica to
influence the inflammatory process in the wound healing cascade and its
ability to promote Type 1 and Type 3 collagen balance. The immature
thickened wound is characterised by a prolonged inflammatory stage and an
abundance of Type 3 collagen. The promotion of Type 1 collagen production
and the winding down of the inflammatory process is directly influenced by
Centella Asiatica, as manifested by improved wound healing and scar
formation. This inflammatory modulation property of Centella Asiatica may
stop the conversion of the myofibroplasts, the cell type known to be
associated with thickened, keloid type scars.
To maintain purity, we use fresh
Centella Asiatica leaves. The GK Cream regulates the production and
formation of collagen fibres. It is often used on recent scars to prevent
and control the proliferation of scar tissues. The GK Cream is applied
over the fresh scar on a twice daily basis to hydrate and moisturise the
area while enhancing wound healing. The process should continue until
maturity of the scar is evident as demonstrated by whitening of the scar
and relief symptoms such as itching. This may take up to 6 months. The GK
Cream also works well with the Orange Peel to soften and smoothen rough,
pitted skin caused by acne.
Note: The GK Cream has limited
effect on mature keloids.
[ Instructions ]
Apply to the affected area after
wound cleaning and antisepsis, 1-2 times daily or as required.
[ Qualities of GK Cream]
The constituents of Centella
Asiatica include essential oil, sterols, flavonol glycosides, polyalkynes
and saponins.
Centella Asiatica has great
antibacterial, anti-psoriatic, and wound-healing properties
Laboratory tests proved that it
contains compounds that exert a balancing effect on connective tissue. The
net effect is improved function and integrity of the collagen matrix and
supportive structures leading to remarkable wound healing activity.
When Centella Asiatica was used in
treatment of patients with second or third degree burns, the results were
excellent.
The extract prevented or limited the
shrinkage and swelling of the skin caused by infection and inhibited scar
formation, increasing healing and reducing fibrosis.
Centella Asiatica is also helpful in
treating arthritis, tension and varicose veins, but more importantly for
skincare - it increases the tensile integrity of the dermis (hardens the
skin), increases Keratinization of the dermis and balancing effect on
connective tissue.
And with this in mind, it is easy to
understand why it is such a blessing to use in cosmetics, since it does
not only help with circulation, but boosts the entire skin as well.
