Step-by-Step Guide: How to Use Scarban Silicone Sheets

Scarban silicone sheets are classified as a medical device. Always adhere to the instructions provided with the product. It's crucial to follow the guidance of your healthcare practitioner regarding the use of Scarban silicone sheets. This page offers a concise overview of the instructions for using Scarban silicone sheets.

Instructions for using Scarban silicone sheets

Only use Scarban after your wound has completely closed, with no more sutures or scabs.
Make sure to cover an area 2 cm around the scar with the silicone sheet. You can trim it if needed.
Remove any hair around the scar area for better adhesion and durability of the silicone sheets.
Before applying the sheet, clean and dry your skin thoroughly.
Start slowly wearing Scarban, gradually increasing the time as your skin adjusts to the silicone.
For best results, wear Scarban on the scar for at least twelve hours every day, up to a maximum of 20 hours.
Maintain hygiene by cleaning the silicone sheet daily while showering. Use a few drops of Scarban silicone cleaning soap or neutral soap to keep the silicone in good condition and ensure good adhesion.

Duration of use

Each pack of Scarban contains one or more silicone sheets. If used correctly and cared for properly (according to the instructions for use), each pack of Scarban Elastic is sufficient for approximately 4 to 8 weeks of treatment. Each pack of Scarban Light is sufficient for approximately 2 to 4 weeks of treatment. In the event of long-term therapy, several packs may therefore be necessary.

Care Instructions

Step 1: Cleaning

Scarban silicone sheets should be cleaned daily to maintain adhesive strength.
Rub the sheet with a few drops of Scarban silicone cleaning soap or neutral soap and lukewarm water.
Rinse the Scarban silicone sheet well under lukewarm, running water so that all dirt and soap residue is removed.
After contact with soap and water, the adhesive strenght disappears and the silicone sheet rolls up.

Step 2: Drying

Let the Scarban silicone sheet dry (adhesive side up) on a dry, lint-free, clean surface.
During drying, the sheet will automatically unwind and its adhesive strenght will gradually return.
Use the silicone sheet only when it is completely dry.
If the edges of the silicone sheet become damaged and less adhesive over time, they can be trimmed.
