Features

• Self-adhesive silicone gel layer
• Reusable
• Non-adherent outer silicone membrane

Benefits

Improves the Appearance of Scars
CICA-CARE has been medically proven in patient trials to be effective, flattening, softening and fading red and raised scars, both old and new in up to 90% of cases.

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 a 28 day interval.

Cost Effective
CICA-CARE is durable and reusable. Each cut piece lasts up to 28 days in use, making it a cost effective regime.

Indications

CICA-CARE is designed for use:

CICA-CARE is designed for use:

• in the management of both existing and new hypertrophic and keloid scars (red and raised).
• as a preventative therapy on closed wounds to prevent hypertrophic and keloid scars (red and raised).

Contraindications / Precautions

CICA-CARE is contra-indicated for patients with complicating medical factors which would make them unable to use the dressing properly and in patients with dermatological conditions which disrupt the integrity of the skin in areas of coverage. Do not use on open or infected wounds. Do not use on skin currently affected by acne.

Follow instructions for use carefully.

Do not use unless skin surrounding the scar or closed wound is normal. Do not use with ointments or creams under the gel sheet. In some patients a rash has been observed on the scar and surrounding skin. Should a rash occur, reduce CICA-CARE therapy time to 12 hours on, 12 hours off. If the rash persists discontinue use and consult your physician or medical advisor.

On surgical incisions, use CICA-CARE only after sutures have been removed.
