Sunburn is a frequent skin condition caused by extended exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays. While often dismissed as a minor inconvenience, sunburn can cause significant skin damage, increase the risk of skin cancer, and accelerate premature aging. At wound-care.co.uk, we understand the importance of proper care for sunburned skin to promote healing and prevent long-term damage.
In this guide, we’ll explore the causes, symptoms, and effective treatments for sunburn, helping you restore your skin’s health and comfort.
Scars are an inevitable part of the healing process, but managing them effectively can make a significant difference in their appearance and impact on daily life. Enter Cica-Care Silicone Gel Sheeting, a revolutionary solution designed to optimize scar management and promote better outcomes. Here's why Cica-Care is the go-to choice for scar management:
Advanced Silicone Technology: Cica-Care harnesses the power of advanced silicone technology to create an optimal healing environment for scars. The silicone gel sheeting adheres gently to the skin, forming a protective barrier that helps to flatten, soften, and fade scars over time.
Scars are a natural part of the healing process. These marks often appear after the skin has been cut or damaged, formed by collagen to fill the gaps caused by injury. They will fade over time; however, people experiencing complications may require treatment such as dermabrasion, injections, laser, and pressure therapy. Moreover, scar management is possible with Mepitac tape.
The role of Mepitac tape in scar management
Mepitac is a soft silicone fabric tape designed as a fixation solution for patients with fragile and sensitive skin. It is composed of three parts:
A knitted fabric exterior that is conformable, flexible, and easy to cut in different sizes and shapes
A breathable polyurethane film with waterproof properties
Safetac soft silicon micro-adherent technology, is safe for the skin, leaving no residue and causing
Treating scars can be difficult, especially red and raised ones. Treat any kind of scar with 90% effectiveness that is up to 20 years old with a CICA-CARE self-adhesive silicone gel sheet. CICA-CARE is a comfortable, reusable, and durable dressing that can be used at day or night, both by adults and children.
Indications:
Cica-Care is indicated for use as a prophylactic therapy on closed wounds that helps prevent hypertrophic scarring and keloids.
How it Works
The dressing provides hydration to the scar area. The moisture that is locked into the skin around the scar helps in reducing the blood supply to that specific scar area. This reduction in blood supply in turn reduces the collagen amount in the area, resulting in the affected scar area becoming paler and to slowly become of the natural colour of the skin.
