Benefits |
|
|
Improves the
appearance of scars
Widely used by
hospitals,
dermatologists, and
surgeons for the
management of
hypertrophic and
keloid scars.
Easy to use
The Cica-Care
adhesive gel sheet
is soft, comfortable
and simple to
apply. It can be
cut to size to fit
most scars. Durable
and reusable, it can
be used day or
night.
Self adhesive
The skin contact
side of Cica-Care
is self adhesive,
while the upper side
is a strengthening
non-adhesive
silicone membrane.
Therefore secondary
fixation may not be
required, making the
product more user
friendly, and can
lead to higher
patient compliance.
Durable
The silicone
membrane and gel
combination make
Cica-Care more
durable and less
likely to “crumble”
in comparison to
other silicone gel
sheets.
Conformable
Cica-Care is
a very conformable
silicone gel sheet.
Because it is
self-adhesive,
Cica-Care can be
easily used in many
awkward anatomical
locations, including
earlobes and sternal
areas.
Reusable
One piece of Cica-Care
can be easily washed
and reused. Once it
becomes difficult to
clean, a new piece
should be used. This
usually occurs after
14 to 28 day
intervals.
Cost effective
Cica-Care is
durable and
reusable. Each cut
piece lasts up to 28
days in use, making
it a cost effective
regime.
