NewGel Plus by MyNewGel silicone sheeting products improve scars by providing a combination of occlusion (seals the scar from exposure to air), hydration, elevated skin temperature and continuous light pressure. This prevents the skin from producing excessive scar tissue, and helps the scar to stay flat, soft and less red.

Some wrinkling on the edges is normal due to the 1 mm thickness of NewGel Plus by MyNewgel sheeting products. We recommend using any medical adhesive tape to secure sheeting in place - particularly along body contours.
