If it is not possible to wear the gel sheet for the recommended 24 hour period, a minimum of 12 hours per day is required, washing per the instructions below once in that period. Follow this procedure each day, washing and re-applying the gel sheeting to the scar for 1 to 2 weeks. At that time the piece of gel sheeting will begin to lose its adhesive quality and\/or may become embedded with surface dirt. When this occurs, discard the piece of gel sheeting and apply a new piece.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe overall optimal period of use is usually 8 to 12 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCLEANING INSTRUCTIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRemove the Epi-Derm every 12 hours to wash both the scar and the gel sheet using \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/direct.jdhealthcare.com.au\/silqueclenz-cleansing-wash\/\"\u003eSilqueClenz Cleansing Wash\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e.

Silicone sheets are tacky on the back and easy to apply. \u003cstrong\u003eEpi-derm\u003c\/strong\u003e silicone gel sheeting is the most effective, proven method of scar management available today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow Does Silicone Work?\u003c\/strong\u003e Scars need an ideal healing environment, meaning the appropriate balance of moisture and maximum exposure to oxygen. Silicone fully encapsulates the scar site, meaning that it completely covers the treatment site for even distribution of necessary moisture (hydration), and maximum exposure to oxygen. Although the entire site is covered, \u003cstrong\u003esilicone\u003c\/strong\u003e is semipermeable, allowing oxygen to enter while keeping excess moisture out. Properly hydrated and oxygenated skin allows surrounding healthy tissue to better blend with scar tissue, resulting in a scar that is more natural in color, softer, and flatter overall. Use as directed can dramatically reduce the appearance of scars. Silicone scar treatment in all forms (sheets, ointments, sticks) normalise collagen synthesis and breakdown, resulting in a softer and flatter scar. Silicone is completely non-toxic, safe and easy to use, even on sensitive skin and on children. Silicone is the best option for treating old and new scars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Is the Epi-Derm Fabric Gel Sheeting - C-Section Strips - 1 Strip For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Epi-Derm Fabric Gel Sheeting - C-Section Strips - 1 Strip is suitable for clinics, healthcare facilities, carers and customers selecting clinical or personal-care supplies for the product's stated purpose.
