WARNINGS, PRECAUTIONS, ADVERSE REACTIONS
Possible complications include:
• Superficial maceration of the skin • Rash
• Skin Discoloration • PruritusRashes have been observed on skin under the KELOTOP® Silicone Gel, this has been attributed to poor or insufficient cleansing of the scar area.

If the rash persists, a physician should be contacted and KELOTOP® Silicone Gel use should be discontinued.
Discoloration of the skin covered by KELOTOP® Silicone Gel has been reported, particularly in dark skinned patients. This effect appears to be transient, and may be similar to the discoloration experienced whenever an area of skin is covered for extended periods of time.
If ingested, get medical help or contact Poison Control Center right away.
Do not use creams, lotions, sun block or other silicone products over and around the scar area when wearing KELOTOP® Silicone Gel. These products will create a barrier between the scar site and the silicone gel, preventing a proper healing environment.
