Savlon Advanced Healing Gel, to speed up healing and reduce the likelihood of scarring

Savlon Advanced Healing Gel is used to cleanse and help prevent infection of cuts & grazes, insect bites & stings, minor burns & scalds, shaving cuts, spots and blackheads, and blisters & sores. It is also suitable for use on minor sunburn, and chapped skin.

New Savlon Advanced Healing Gel is a unique multi-action gel that helps to actively speed up healing and reduce the likelihood of scarring. It covers the wound and creates an optimal moist healing environment.

- Aids faster healing.

The unique hydrocolloid formulation (pH = 5.5) creates the optimal conditions for healing, and accelerates cell renewal. In the case of a dry wound Savlon Advanced Healing Gel turns the wound into a moist one. This promotes the dissolution of damaged tissue. In the case of a moist wound, excessive fluid is absorbed from the wound and the water balance is restored.

- Reduces the likelihood of scarring.

If used throughout the healing process, the formation of hard scab is prevented, and the chance of scarring is reduced.


- Quickly soothes pain

Helps to quickly reduce pain due to the gel's cooling effect
