DIRECTIONS TO USE
- Wash your hands before use and then gently clean the scar and surrounding skin. Thoroughly dry the area before applying Cica-Care
- Peel the lid from the tray containing Cica-Care and remove the gel sheet
- With a pair of scissors, cut the sheet to the size of the scar – allowing a little overlap all the way round. Store the remaining gel sheet in a dry place, like the tray the gel came in
- Remove the printed plastic sheet to reveal the adhesive
- Apply Cica-Care, adhesive side down, to the scarred area without stretching the strip. (If your scar is in an awkward position you may wish to use a light bandage or tape to keep Cica-Care in position.) Do not hold the gel sheet too tightly to the skin as this may cause irritation of the scar and surrounding area
- Cica-Care should be applied to the scar for 4 hours on the first two days of use. The application time should then be increased by 2 hours a day to enable your skin to get used to the gel strip
- Clean Cica-Care twice daily with a mild soap. Once you’ve cleaned the gel strip, rinse it well
- Dry the Cica-Care strip with a non-fluffy towel before re-applying. Ensure the scar and surrounding area is washed too
PRECAUTION

- On surgical incisions Cica-Care should be used only after sutures have been removed
- They are available in the size 12 cm X 6 cm
