Self Adhesive Dressing With Safetac® For Scar Management

Description

Mepiform® is designed to manage existing hypertrophic and keloid scars and to prevent new ones from appearing over time. Safetac® layer minimizes pain and trauma when changing dressing. It is made of silicone , a material capable of having a positive impact on hypertrophic and keloid scars.

When used for prevention purposes, patients should wear it for between two and six months, depending on the condition of the scar. Ideally, it should be worn 24 hours a day, except when bathing or showering.

• Soft silicone self-adhesive dressing for scar management
• Safetac® layer to minimize pain and trauma for patients
• It can be lifted, adjusted and left in place for several days
• Thin, flexible and discreet, to be able to wear it during the activities of daily life

HOW DOES MEPIFORM WORK?

It has been empirically shown that topical silicone has a positive effect in the treatment of hypertrophic and keloid scars. It can take three months to a year or more for an old scar to improve, depending on the condition of the tissue.

• Minimizes pain and trauma when dressing changes
• It conforms perfectly to the areas to be treated, without the need for additional fixing
• Clinically proven: reduces scarring and the likelihood of scar formation
• It can be worn during daily activities and reapplied

Safetac® is the original adhesive silicone contact layer that minimizes pain. We designed it to gently adapt to the skin without sticking to the moist wound so it can be removed easily without damaging the skin. This means less pain for your patients. Safetac also protects the new tissue and intact skin, without disturbing the wound and accelerating its natural healing. It also seals the edges of the wound to protect the skin from leaking exudate and maceration. Combined less pain and less skin damage promote faster healing, which also reduces the cost of treatment.

Since their launch, Safetac technology dressings have won the trust of doctors to treat millions of patients around the world. We are committed to earning this trust by supporting our products with evidence of quality. Did you know that over 450 peer-reviewed studies confirm Safetac's superior performance? This large evidence base includes over 30 RCTs.
