Top features
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Gel B5 is a lightweight protective repair gel formulated for compromised and post-procedure skin. The formula combines 21% glycerin, 5% panthenol (B5), madecassoside, and a mineral complex of copper, zinc, and manganese—backed by La Roche-Posay's signature Thermal Spring Water. Designed for soothing and barrier repair, it's clinically tested post-laser, post-stitches, and post-procedure use.
Key strengths: Fast-acting soothing effect, dermatologist-trusted brand, gentle enough for sensitive skin, and fragrance-free formulation. The gel texture is less occlusive than traditional balms, making it suitable for those who find heavier repairs too rich.
Best for: Post-procedure skin, disrupted barriers, eczema-prone skin, and anyone seeking a non-greasy repair gel. Works as both a face treatment and targeted spot treatment.
