The gel from the scar specialist Contractubex is the world’s most popular scar treatment. It has been treating scars successfully for over 50 years. The gel is the best-selling scar treatment in over 60 countries, and is regularly recommended by doctors all around the world.
The efficacy of Contractubex® Gel has been proven in numerous clinical studies. Its unique combination of three active ingredients works its way deep into the scar, reducing scarring from within. The result: a nearly invisible scar.
Contractubex® Gel’s effectiveness is also reflected in high patient satisfaction. The positive experiences of thousands of patients show that using Contractubex® Gel really makes a difference, and scars can be treated successfully.
You can start using Contractubex® Gel as soon as the wound has closed or the stitches have been removed, because the sooner you begin with the scar treatment, the better the chances of positively affecting scar development. Reddening fades after just a few weeks, and continued treatment with Contractubex® Gel and its triple-action formula allows further improvements in appearance to be achieved. The scar becomes more elastic and flatter. Treatment may well take 3 – 6 months depending on the extent of scarring, as scar tissue regenerates very slowly. Be ambitious and stay on course – it’s worth the effort!
Contractubex® Gel has a unique formula with three specific medical effects that supports the physical scar healing and ensures minimal scar visibility.

Take a look at our medical demo spot and discover how the mode of action of its triple-action formula helps minimise the visibility of your scar.
The transparent Contractubex® Gel contains active ingredients that support the healing process inside the skin, regulating the production of scar tissue and working to positively influence scar formation.
Contractubex® contains three complementary active ingredients:
Extractum cepae
has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal properties and prevents the formation of excessive scar tissue.
Heparin
softens the tissue structure, has anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling properties, supports cell and tissue regeneration and is able to bind water to the scar tissue.
Allantoin
encourages wound healing and has a softening effect, promotes penetration through the skin and relieves the itching often associated with scar formation.
Contractubex® has proved highly effective in treating scars for many years. The results that can be achieved are well worth the patience the treatment requires: a nearly invisible scar.
The sooner a scar is treated, the greater the chance of positively influencing scar formation. Start applying Contractubex® Gel as soon as the wound is closed and/or any stitches have been removed. The clear gel is easy and safe to apply.
Ideally, Contractubex® Gel should be gently massaged in 2 to 3 times daily for at least 3 months. Contractubex® Gel forms a discreet film that protects the sensitive scar tissue.
Apply Contractubex® Gel only to wounds that are already closed. Avoid contact with eyes, the inside of the nose or mouth and other mucous membranes.
Start at the centre and work towards the edges, massaging the gel gently into the scar.
Continue with a small, circular motion until Contractubex® Gel is completely absorbed.
Scar treatment needs patience, as the injured skin takes time to heal. After about 4 weeks, a reduction of redness can usually be observed; after two months, the scar tissue gradually becomes lighter, more elastic and flat.
Contractubex® Gel is very safe and its tolerability has been proven in numerous clinical studies. Small children and even babies can be treated safely.
The treatment can also work on scars that are older. With older scars, Contractubex® Gel should be massaged in 3 times daily for at least 6 months.
Contractubex® Gel works effectively with all types of scars
Wounds are injuries of the skin and stay with us our whole lives. Most wounds are harmless and are quickly forgotten. Nevertheless, they leave marks on our skin: a scar.
Contractubex® Gel can be used following many different types of injuries to the skin:
Abrasions
Cuts or lacerations
Operations (including after Caesarean section)
Burns or scalds
Laser treatments (such as tattoo removal)
The resulting scars are also as diverse as the types of injuries. Some scars are barely visible, while others may hurt or even cause physical impairments – for example, in range of motion.
In general: Early treatment with Contractubex® Gel ensures, in all cases, that the resulting scars heal as well as possible and are barely visible at best.
