In many instances results are seen within a relatively short period of time, but patience is the key in any healing process. Simply apply Elicina to the affected site in the evening before bedtime. After cleaning the affected area, pat dry and gently massage a very thin coat of Elicina over the site and that is all there is to it. A keloid is an overgrowth of scar tissue at the site of a skin wound. The new tissue is elevated, rounded, and firm, with irregular and claw-like margins.
Keloids occur most often in heavily pigmented people and tend to get progressively worse.
A hypertrophic scar is a wound that heals to greater than normal size as a result of a aggressive lay down of collagen, contained in larger than normal skin cells, producing a raised, smooth, hyper-pigmented result. The site maintains a higher than normal level of sensitivity and the tissue is more fibrous in structure. Elicina has shown to flatten, soften, smooth and dramatically improve the discoloration noted with these types of aggressive scars. In cases involving heavily pigmented people where damaged skin was treated on half with Elicina and the other half left alone, the side covered with Elicina healed normally, the uncovered site formed a hypertrophic scar. Yes, Elicina is completely bio-compatible and safe.
