When to use ALHYDRAN SPF 30
Use ALHYDRAN SPF 30 on closed skin once the wound has healed and the skin is ready for exposure to daylight.
ALHYDRAN SPF 30 is suitable for:
- Scars, both new and existing
- Burns (sunburns / scalds) and burn scars
- Sensitive or vulnerable skin
- Skin after laser or cosmetic treatments
- Radiotherapy aftercare
- Extremely dry or red skin
It is particularly important when the skin is exposed to sunlight, even on cloudy days.
What does ALHYDRAN SPF 30 do
ALHYDRAN SPF 30 delivers a dual-action approach: it restores the skin barrier while protecting it from harmful UV radiation.
- Provides high UV protection, SPF 30 (UVA and UVB)
- Hydrates and restores the skin barrier
- Reduces itching, pain and redness
- Improves skin elasticity and comfort
- Helps prevent and reduce scar formation
The combination of hydration and protection ensures optimal conditions for skin recovery and scar improvement.
Why SPF is essential for scar healing
Protecting a healing scar from UV radiation is critical. Exposure to sunlight can worsen scar formation and lead to long-term skin damage.
- UVB rays can cause burning and irritation
- UVA rays accelerate skin ageing and increase pigmentation
- Both types of radiation can damage cell DNA and worsen scar appearance
Fresh scars are especially vulnerable. Without protection, they are more likely to become darker, thicker and more visible.
International scar management guidelines recommend consistent use of high sun protection as part of standard scar care.
Important!
Avoid direct sun exposure on newly healed scars or immediately after treatments such as laser therapy. Only expose the skin once it has recovered sufficiently and always with proper protection.
Why hydration remains essential
Scar tissue forms in skin with a disrupted barrier. This leads to excessive moisture loss, which causes dryness, itching, and poor healing.
ALHYDRAN SPF 30 restores this balance by:
- Hydrating the epidermis
- Preventing moisture loss
- Supporting skin barrier repair
By restoring moisture balance in the skin, ALHYDRAN reduces excessive water loss and helps prevent complications such as hypertrophic or keloid scars.
Professional recommendation for optimal results
ALHYDRAN is a scientifically proven solution for scar treatment and skin recovery. Its unique combination of hydration and protection makes it a core component of modern scar therapy protocols.
For optimal scar results, start early, apply consistently and combine with silicone therapy, such as Scarban sheets or BAPSCARCARE gel.
- Hydrate the skin with ALHYDRAN
- Apply silicone therapy to control scar formation
This combination is recognised as the most effective non-invasive scar treatment approach.
How to use ALHYDRAN SPF 30
- Apply generously before sun exposure
- Use enough product for full protection
- Reapply every 2 hours
- Reapply after swimming, sweating or drying
- Avoid intense midday sun where possible
No sunscreen offers complete protection, so always combine with additional protective measures such as clothing and shade.
Only use on closed skin. Do not apply to open or infected wounds.
