1,Cleaning and Disinfection: Always ensure the treated area is clean and disinfected before applying silicone gel scar strips. Cleaning the skin will reduce the risk of infection and ensure that the scar will adhere effectively.
2,Appropriate use time: According to the manufacturer's directions, use the silicone gel scar patch for the recommended time. Too long or too short use time may affect the healing effect of the scar. Follow product directions for best results.
3,Avoid use on open wounds: Make sure the wound is fully healed or superficially closed before starting to use silicone gel scar coverings. Do not apply scar strips to open wounds or broken skin.
4,Avoid Allergic Reactions: Before using a new silicone gel scar patch, do an allergy test first. Place a small patch on an insensitive area of the skin and watch for any discomfort or allergic reaction. If symptoms such as redness, swelling, itching, or pain occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional.
5,Avoid overstretching: Avoid overstretching the skin when applying silicone gel scar strips. Excessive stretching may cause discomfort or affect the adhesion of the patch.
6,Replace regularly: Replace the silicone gel scar strips regularly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Continued use of an aged or worn scar patch may no longer be effective, or may cause discomfort or skin reactions.
7,Follow Physician's Advice: If you are receiving professional treatment or have specific medical advice, follow your physician's directions. Work with your doctor to ensure the silicone gel scar is being used correctly and consult a medical professional if needed.
