A scientific study on the effectiveness of my method is currently in progress.
For who?
For people of all ages with a wide variety of surgical scars, including scar complications, even poorly closing amputation scars can be worked on. Improvement of scars is possible even after years or even decades.
When?
Practically applicable already after one day of surgery, if the environment allows it. Scars can close and hold permanently without complications in a very short time, if they are treated properly.
Additional effects of scar care are:
- a noticeable reduction in pain
- swelling in the tissue is effectively reduced
- better mobility, resilience
How long?
The duration of the treatment depends on the condition of the scar and, of course, on the person. Everyone is different and individual. (And that is a good thing).

The Method
Uli’s Scar Care – Gentle. Effective. Holistic.
Over ten years ago, I, Uli Gutbrod, developed a special method in Brazil for treating post-surgical scars.
It was inspired by working with women after breast cancer surgery whose scars caused not only physical, but also emotional pain.
Today, this method supports people of all ages – especially when conventional therapies are no longer effective.
Deep-acting. Non-invasive. Sustainable.
The method is based on insights from neuromuscular stimulus processing, fascia therapy, and sensorimotor reintegration, offering a highly individualized, functional alternative to standard treatments.

Things to know about surgical scars
A surgical incision in the skin always causes a wound. The surgeon closes this wound to the best of his or her ability so that it heals with minimal scarring.
In addition to the type of wound, its location and the closure technique used, there are other factors that influence the type of surgical scar. Some of them you can influence yourself, e.g. by sun exposure or smoking, others are controlled by facts, such as age, genetic predisposition, skin type or ethnic origin.
Scars are part of your body's natural healing process. Scarring after surgery goes through three phases[1]:
Wound closure
In the first phase, which begins immediately after the surgeon closes the wound and lasts about 1 week, the body initiates wound closure by clotting.
Scarring
Over the next 1 to 2 weeks, fibrous tissue is formed through the synthesis of collagen and elastin, resulting in a scar that may be red and itchy.
Remodeling
In the final remodeling phase, the lower part of the scar undergoes a healing and remodeling process in which, ideally, the collagen that was originally deposited in a disorderly manner is replaced by ordered collagen, making the scar paler, softer and less sensitive.
Typical scars
The scar usually takes on its final appearance after 1 to 2 years. Typical scars after surgery are:
Hypertrophic scars, which develop during the inflammatory phase and then rapidly increase in volume in the area of the cut surface.
Keloid scars, that develop about a year after surgery and are sometimes painful or itchy. They are voluminous beyond the surgical incision and often occur in areas with thick skin and in darker skin types[2].
The main goal of external sessions is to keep the freshly healed skin moist [3,4]. Therefore, external scar treatments contain highly moisturizing ingredients. Upon return to daily activities (approximately 2 to 3 weeks after surgery) after the initial scar formation phase, when a moist environment is most important for the session, scar pain usually subsides and patients return to their normal activities. This means that the scar now needs special protection from environmental factors, especially sunlight.
The fresh skin on scars is particularly sensitive to the sun and it is strongly recommended to protect scars from the sun for about 18 months[4,8,9] Antioxidants such as vitamins A, C and E protect the skin from light damage,[10,11] and a sunscreen protects the scar from sunlight.[3,4] Scar ointments for adults should contain hyaluronic acid or hydrolyzed collagen as well as lecithin and/or glycerin. In addition to its ability to bind water, hyaluronic acid has antioxidant properties and stimulates collagen production[6,7].
