When to start?

Begin using Opti-Heal Silicone Wound Recovery Strips as soon as the skin is healed and there is no oozing or crusting in the area. Treatment with Opti-Heal Silicone Wound Recovery Strips for post-surgical scars may typically begin 1-2 weeks after stitches are removed or when cleared by a physician or surgeon for use.

For existing scars, begin using Opti-Heal Silicone Wound Recovery Strips right away, provided the skin is fully healed.

What to expect?

Each scar is unique with many factors impacting results.

It is not possible to a make a scar ‘invisible’. Opti-Heal Silicone Wound Recovery Strips may, however, markedly improve the appearance of old and new scars.

Results may occur in as little as 4-8 weeks, although individual results will vary. Recommended duration of treatment is 60-120 days.

For better results

Keep the strip in place for at least 12 hours and up to 23 hours per day.

If required, a fixation aid such as tape, netting or a pressure garment may be used to hold the strip in place.

To allow the skin to acclimatize, begin by applying the product for 4 hours per day for the 1st two days, gradually increasing by 2 hours per day until the optimal therapy time is obtained.
