Product Overview

Epi-Derm and Epi-Derm Natural are the premium silicone gel sheeting available for scar management. Original clear Epi-Derm set the standard for comfort and quality more than 20 years ago, and is still regarded by surgeons as the superior choice in unlined silicone gel sheeting. Epi-Derm Natural offers all the advantages of original Epi-Derm, but with a soft, natural colored fabric liner. The areola circles are ideally dimensioned silicone gel sheets for small hypertrophic and keloid scars resulting from areola reconstruction and breast augmentation surgery. The areola circles can be cut to size and complement the pairs of mastopexy forms, which are sold separately.

Ingredients

Epi-Derm Sheeting: Medical Grade Polymerized Siloxanes (100% Clear Silicone Gel). Epi-Derm Natural adds a Lycra (Spandex) fabric liner

Directions

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Wash both scar and hands per cleaning instructions. Open the non-sterile pouch containing the Epi-Derm Silicone Gel Sheet. Remove the gel sheeting from the plastic substrate liner(s) prior to use. Epi-Derm may be cut into smaller pieces using scissors or a scalpel. Once you have determined the appropriate size of sheeting to use, apply tacky side to the scar. The gel sheeting should fully cover the scar and extend ¼ inch all the way around the scar border. If the product is worn during sleep, it should be secured. Use of medical tape (Epi-Tape) or other means is recommended to keep the sheet from falling off.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Remove the Epi-Derm every 12 hours to wash both the scar and the gel sheet using SilqueClenz. In a basin of warm water, work up a small amount of lather with the soap. Gently wash the piece of gel sheeting in the soapy water, rinse, and then air dry. Make sure the sheeting is completely dry before reapplying to the scar. After washing, rinsing and drying the scar site, reapply the piece of gel sheeting.

WEARING TIME

Optimal wearing time for Epi-Derm Silicone Gel Sheeting is 24 hours per day. 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 above once in that period. Follow this procedure each day, washing and reapplying 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. The overall optimal period of use is usually 8 to 12 weeks.

Not worth it

I had purchased this product for my scars after breast reduction surgery to decrease scarring and assist with healing. I had used a silicone product purchased from a doctor which was great but pricey, so I started using ScarAway. This was great too and held well. After reading reviews, I decided to purchase this item and am really dissatisfied with it. It comes off during shower, highly irritates my skin causing to itch greatly, and is quite large. It's not worth the price. Highly disappointed and would recommend a lower priced item or something other.

Great coverage

I love these areola silicone sheets. They're super sticky and easy to apply. They provide great coverage as they're kind of big in circumference. I got the clear so you can't really see them when they're on, but they are thick. I highly recommend these for any scarring around the areola.

Great for scars

I'm impressed. I bought one pack and wasn't sure how it would retain the adhesion. I used mine for about two months and could still get some more uses out of it. Cleaning can be a bit of a pain ...you will experience skin that sticks to the adhesion when you remove it. I didn't buy the clinque clenz to clean it but you would probably have a better & easier time if you buy the cleaning solution. Over all, I''m happy with the way my scars are healing and I think it''s all thanks to biodermis.

Scar Minimizer Patches

I've been using these scar minimizing circles for almost 4 months and I can tell you that my scars (from breast reconstruction surgery) are looking really good. I've had multiple surgeries and cannot believe how faint the scars are becoming. My plastic surgeon advises I keep using them until the scars completely fade - which might be a few more months. Well worth the cost (especially when on sale) and I highly recommend them.
