Flamigel®
Our solution for superficial wounds
Flamigel® is an innovative gel that contributes to up to 40% faster wound healing and reduction of scar formation. It’s a versatile solution that can be used for minor wounds, such as cuts and grazes, sunburn and first degree burns.
The hydro-active colloid gel works according to the effective principle of moist wound healing.
How it works
For superficial wounds
- Hydrogel effect: moisturises and debrides the wound.
- Hydrocolloid effect: absorbs excess fluid and restores and maintains the water balance in the wound.
- Arginine: is as a building block of the skin and increases the moisturising properties of the gel.

FAQ
- Wash your hands before and after treating the wound.
- Clean and dry the wound gently before applying Flamigel®.
- For superficial burns and minor wounds (e. g. grazes, cuts): Carefully apply Flamigel® to the wound (without rubbing) once or twice a day (in case of sunburn apply twice to six times daily). If necessary, cover the wound with a plaster or dressing and change it daily.
- For superficial open wounds: Apply a thick layer of Flamigel® (5 mm) to the wound minimizing contact with the wound edges, cover Flamigel® with a sterile non-adhesive dressing and fix with a gauze or bandage. Leave Flamigel® in place as long as the gel structure is intact. Renew Flamigel® when it has disappeared. When new skin cells start to form and the wound is closing, apply only a thin layer of Flamigel® to prevent weakening. If necessary, protect the wound edges.
- For open wounds: Change daily. Removing the gel: Wash hands before and after removing Flamige®l. Flamigel® can be removed simply and painlessly with wet gauze.

Wounds must be thoroughly cleansed each time the dressing is changed. This can be done, for example, with Flamirins® .
