Biodermis Epi-Derm Large 11"x 16" Silicone Sheet

Biodermis silicone sheets are ideal for the reduction of post-burn scarring. It can be wrapped around a limb or cover large scar areas on the torso to create an environment conducive to healing.  Biodermis Epi-derm™ silicone sheets are proven to be the most effective method of scar treatment available today. All Epi-Derm™ silicone sheets can be trimmed to size for comfort.

Biodermis Scar Silicone Sheets works on both new and old scars of all types, helping to reduce scar size, thickness, and appearance. Silicone sheets soften and smooth the scar with the surrounding skin, making it far less noticeable. Additionally, these silicone sheets may be used to help in the prevention of hypertrophic and keloid scarring when used on closed post-surgical scars. Silicone sheets can even be used for breast augmentation, liposuction (for larger scars), arm procedures (brachioplasty), thigh lift (thighplasty), body lift, buttock lift, neck lift and other cosmetic surgery procedures. Pro-Sil gel is a great scar cream to use daily on exposed areas, but many prefer the silicone sheets for 24 hour wear or overnight treatment.

Clinical studies have shown that the newer the scar, the better the result. One such study found a success rate of up to 85% on scars under 1 year old, and the rate of about 65% for scars over 10 years old. The optimal period of use of silicone sheets is typically a minimum of 12 hours per day (and ideally 24 hours per day) for 8-12 weeks.

Scars need a "healing environment,” meaning the appropriate balance of moisture and exposure to oxygen. Biodermis Epi-derm™ is a fully-encapsulating silicone sheet that completely covers the treatment site for uniform healing of the entire area. Biodermis Epi-derm™ is semi-permeable, allowing oxygen to enter while keeping moisture out and thus creating the ideal environments for healing scar tissue. Biodermis Epi-derm™ is soft and easy to apply.
 
Once Biodermis silicone sheets have been applied to the scar area, it can be used for 1 to 2 weeks. When it begins to lose its adhesive qualities, or when surface dirt becomes difficult to remove with proper daily washing, it is time to replace the silicone sheet.
