Product Description

Advanced Bio-Technologies, Inc. has developed a revolutionary and patented product that maintains the positive benefits of silicone gel sheets while eliminating the concerns and limitations associated with their use.Kelo-cote is an innovative topical silicone gel for the management of scars and for the prevention of abnormal scars in the form of hypertrophic scars and keloids. It is indicated for scars resulting from trauma, surgery, burns or other events that result in broken skin.Kelo-cote gel self-dries to a waterproof, gas permeable membrane that acts like an extra layer of skin. It helps to soften, flatten and smooth the scar while maintaining the moisture balance and elasticity of the adjacent skin. It has also been shown to reduce the discoloration and itching associated with scars.For the management and prevention of scars, Kelo-cote can be used as soon as the break in the skin is closed (i.e. after stitches are removed).Size of scar suitable for treatment with one 15g tube: 4.75-6.75 inch / 12-17 cm (Length of scar, based on a linear scar with a coverage width of 0.5 inch / 1.25 cm)

Im a very happy "Lab Rat" for my plastic surgeon,
I had a bilateral arm lift at Thanksgiving 2007. At one of my post-op visits my surgeon asked me if I would be willing to test the Kelo-cote, doing only one arm for 45 days or so. We selected my left arm which was also the arm that looked "worse". I used kelo-cote each day applying it after my shower. I experienced a definite difference within 7 days and was dumbfounded.
My son, who is an amateur photographer, recorded the progress in healing taking photos of my arms every seven days. By the end of 30 days I was telling my co-workers, my primary care doc, even my dermatologist how fantastic and dramatic the difference was. My dermo was so impressed he contacted the company rep to order it for his patients. My plastic surgeon is just amazed at the results and I am now applying Kelo-cote to both arms for the next 45 days. I highly recommend it. A little goes a long way and I am going to order additional tubes to use on some of my older scars. It's worth every darned penny.

Be Patient,
I had surgery to lift my eyebrows with the incisions right above the eyebrow. I used this stuff for 90 days and saw fairly good results. However, a couple of months later, the improvement was significant and within a few months the scar was hardly noticeable. It does not work overnight but the end results are very good.

Kelo-cote,
By NA "NA" (El Paso, Tx) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I used Kelo-cote under dermatologist's prescription for different scars for 1 year. In two 20 year old surgery scars (shoulder and stomach): kelo-cote only cleared skin color, now is back to same color, so no improvement at all. In new scar, no improvent at all, only relieved itching and pain in scar. Last injury in skin as result of a mole fulguration Kelo-cote prevented scar. Seems like kelo-cote is useless for old scars, and maybe there is a chance it only works to prevent new and small superficial scars.
