Keloid Removal - Silicone Gel Scar Sheet Bandage Standard wound healing application 12 cm x 15cm Awarded third prize medical innovation award In brief
During scar management, the Silicone Gel Scar Sheet Bandage is thought to stimulate repair of the dysfunctional top layer of skin covering hypertrophic and keloid scars, as well as decreasing the over-adhesive content found in their matrix. The way the Silicone Gel Scar Sheet Bandages balance the complex cellular physiology to promote the proper healing of the problem scar may be indirect and mysterious, but the evidence of its effectiveness and results are clear. The Silicone Gel Scar Sheet Bandage is a silicon gel membrane, which is made from new type medical high polymer materials. It is a kind of thin, soft and transparent sheet, the adhesive side is applied to the scar, the other side is a silicone side without adhesion; it is unnecessary to use anything else to affix it. It acts on scars through the obvious oxygen tension, pressure and hydrolysis with its characteristics being: easy to use, clean, comfortable and offers excellent moisture penetrability, air permeability, pressure sensitivity and acts as a protective screen from bacteria.
With this in mind, an effective scar management program should be based on the modalities of wound support, hydration, and hastened maturity, all factors gleaned from scientific evidence published over the past 25 years. Tension on a scar in one axis will result in a stretched scar, probably initiated by neutrophils and their neutral proteases. Tension on a scar from many directions or intermittently will result in a hypertrophic scar, possibly initiated by lymphocytes but definitely related to a prolongation of the inflammatory process, with increased fibroblast activity and overabundant extra-cellular matrix secretion. The common initiating factor is the tension on the scar, and the critical element needed to counteract this tension is scar support. Clinical experience has shown us that the most reliable way to support a scar is by using microporous tape or silicone tape at the early stages of formation. Hydration is a second beneficial influence on scar control and is the basis of the use of silicone sheeting and gel. Uses for Silicone Gel Scar Sheet Bandage
