What is Dermaheal Silicone Sheeting?

Dermaheal silicone sheeting is a noninvasive medical device that reduces unsightly scars without surgery. This soft, durable silicone sheeting is reusable and washable and will not break down or disintegrate. A single sheet can be used for the duration of scar management.

What is Dermaheal Rapid Heal Scar Cream?

Rapid Heal Scar cream is a combination of recent advancements in lipid and trans dermal technology. Linolecleic acid with within the phytophingisine base that has shown to induce collagenase production, the naturally accruing enzyme that digest and eliminates excess scar tissue. The ingredients in the cream are delivered via a trans-dermal formulation. So instead of just laying on the skins surface, Rapid-Heal cream delivers essential lipids and bio-molecules deep into the skin where they maximize the healing environment as well as being internally positioned in the epidermis to rebuild the compromised strateum corneum which are symptomatic in Rapid-prolific scarring. Rapid-Heal may be used by itself or in combination with Dermaheal silicone sheeting.

Special Recommendations and Precautions

As with any topical device applied directly to the skin's surface, some type or reaction (usually sweat rash) is possible, though rare.

If you have a reaction, stop using Dermaheal for 24 hours. In most cases, reactions are to the adhesives used in certain tapes; be sure to use the high-quality, hypoallergenic adhesive tape provided in the Dermaheal package.

(Additional Dermaheal Tape may be ordered by calling 1-866-821-0322.)

After 24 hours without product use, wash your scarred area with mild soap and water and dry completely.

Try Dermaheal again for 1 hour the first day, and increase your wearing time 1 hour each day. If you continue to have a problem, stop use and consult a physician or pharmacist.

Therapy and Prevention of Problem Scarring

Keloid and Rapidtrophic scars have many of the same symptoms as fresh wounds in the early stages of the healing process. Among the similarities between problem scarring and newly formed wounds are redness, swelling, pain, itching, high levels of water evaporation and the over production of collagen. In many ways keloid and Rapidtrophic scars are like wounds that never fully heal. Clinical studies show the best way to address problem scars is a preventative approach before they have a chance to fully develop.

According to numerous studies, silicone sheeting such as Dermaheal is the only clinically proven preventative measure against problem scarring. We have concluded from these studies that daily treatments with Dermaheal can begin as soon as an itchy red streak develops in a maturing wound. For those with a personal or family history of problem scarring, daily treatments with Dermaheal should be started one week after sutures are removed and wound is closed and dry.
