Incidence Of Scars Spikes In March

March 24, 2010 - PRLog -- SAN ANTONIO, TX (March 2010) – March ushers in the beginning of the plastic surgery busy season as scores of women finally commit to taking the plunge on that long-awaited nip-tuck. Why? Because undergoing elective surgery in the first quarter allows for ample recovery time from holiday excess, as well adequate time for guys and dolls to reap the rewards of their sexy new silhouette in time for the body-bearing beach season. But while the swelling accompanying most surgical procedures is sure to subside entirely within a few weeks, it's likely some kind of scarring will remain.

“Unfortunately the majority of topical scar treatments over-promise and under-deliver,” says Dr. Minas Chrysopoulo, a San Antonio-based plastic surgeon specializing in advanced breast reconstruction techniques, including DIEP flap reconstruction.  Fed up with the hype, and determined to complete the cycle of healing for his patients, many of whom have survived breast cancer and undergone mastectomy, Dr. Chrysopoulo spent years researching and testing ingredients to produce the most advanced, performance-driven scar treatment available.

InviCible Scars™ Advanced Scar Therapy represents five years of some of the best minds, nationally-acclaimed PhD’s, chemists, formulators and business people coming together to develop a skincare product unlike any other.  InviCible Scars combines proven skin care technology, a patent-pending blend of naturally-derived collagen regulators (a Dual-Vitamin C complex), intensive moisturizers, pigment lighteners and essential fatty acids (patent-pending ProBiosyn-4) – along with the safest form of silicone gel (Dimethicone) – to help speed the healing process, smooth skin texture and even out skin tone.

Equally as important, InviCible Scars DOES NOT contain any ingredient that is controversial, inconclusive, superfluous or harmful, including D4 and D5 forms of silicones, commonly found in existing scar treatments. The anhydrous formula (formulated without water) is also hypo-allergenic: it avoids all preservatives (like parabens), fragrances, alcohol, mineral oil and petroleum.

InviCible Scars addresses facial scars, acne blemishes, burns, stretch marks, hyper-pigmentation and hypertrophic scars – from surgery, skin injury and pregnancy – and will even improve the results of micro-dermabrasion, laser resurfacing and chemical peels.

Application:

Apply InviCible Scars™ Advanced Scar Therapy once initial scar healing occurs (skin heals over) or dark pigmentation is noted. Apply a thin film to the wound site, 2 – 3 times a day, massaging it into the area until the cream is absorbed. Keep scars out of the sun or cover with a minimum of SPF 30 sunscreen to prevent permanent redness or discoloration. DO NOT apply InviCible Scars to open wounds.

InviCible Scars is now available at http://www.inviciblescars.com as well as select physicians’ offices and med spas later this year.

Suggested retail price: $82 for 0.9 oz/ml tube (about a 2-month supply)
