Scars in your life

Scars and your lifestyle

Scars can restrict quality of life and your personal lifestyle in all sorts of ways.

There are many situations in which feeling self-confident about your body plays an important role. Whether in intimate situations or in a social context, it’s crucial to feel comfortable in one’s own skin.

There are multiple situations in which a scar can have a negative effect:

  • In intimate situations
  • When seeing friends
  • In front of the mirror
  • In the sauna
  • On the beach
  • On a night out

This makes it all the more important to take immediate action to ensure optimal scar healing with an effective, sustained treatment. Because the less visible a scar is, the easier it is to live with. For best possible results, start treatment with Contractubex® as soon as the wound is closed or the stitches are removed.

With the use of Contractubex®, the scar can become more subtle. You and the others will perceive it less.
