Our bodies should never limit our potential, so Smith & Nephew creates products like the CICA-CARE Silicone Gel Sheet to help take the limits off living—no matter where our health care happens. CICA-CARE is a silicone gel sheet designed for temporary use in the management of both existing and new hypertrophic scars and keloids on closed wounds. It is effective in fading red, raised scars up to 30 years old on children and adults. It can also reduce the thickness, itchiness, and coloration of raised scars. CICA-CARE is conformable and flexible and can be used in many anatomical locations, making it easy to apply and remove during your daily life.Directions: Clean and dry the surrounding skin, then lift a CICA-CARE sheet out of the peel packet with its release liner attached. Cut a piece to cover the scar, leaving a small overlap on the surrounding skin. For large scars, use several sheets side by side. To help with ease of removal, ensure that each piece includes the removal flap on the backing sheet. Carefully peel off the release liner and apply the adhesive side to the scar without stretching the sheet. Although CICA-CARE is self-adhesive, it may also be held in place by a light elastic conforming bandage or tape, such as OPSITE Flexfix or Primafix. Do not bind the sheet too tightly against the scar, as this can lead to irritation in the scar and the surrounding area. Keep the unused portion of the CICA-CARE gel sheet in the original container and store it in a dry place (Since 1856, Smith & Nephew has pioneered health solutions with one mission: to use technology to take the limits off living.
