Savlon advanced healing gel wound treatment for superficial burns and minor wounds, e.g. Grazes and cutssavlon advanced healing gel is a hydroactive colloid gel for the treatment of wounds, which supports the healing of skin by covering the wound and creating an optimal moist healing environment. Savlon advanced healing gel is for use on superficial burns and minor wounds, e.g. Grazes and cuts. Savlon advanced healing gel may also be used in open wounds (without substantial breach of the dermis) and superficial bedsores (only under supervision of a doctor or nurse).savlon advanced healing gel contains a hydrocolloid (ph = 5.5) which helps to create optimal moist healing conditions to accelerate cell renewal and so reduces the likelihood of scarring. Furthermore, savlon advanced healing gel helps to soothe and quickly reduces pain due to its cooling effect. Savlon advanced healing gel can be used for a dry or moist wound:-in case of a dry wound, savlon advanced healing gel turns the dry wound into a moist one ("hydrogel" effect). The dry wound absorbs the water contained in savlon advanced healing gel and promotes the dissolution of necrotic/damaged tissue. -in case of a moist wound, the hydrocolloid of savlon advanced healing gel is activated and consequently savlon advanced healing gel absorbs excessive fluid from the wound and restores the water balance in the wound ("hydrocolloid" effect).
