Description
Reduce the visibility of your plastic surgery scars following a tummy tuck
Improscar Patch is a water-resistant silicone dressing (patch) used to help reduce the visibility of plastic surgery scars following an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck. Each Improscar Patch stays on the scar for an average of one week and can also be used in the shower. Improscar Patch for Abdominoplasty contains the patches that are normally needed to reduce the visibility of scars that occur after a tummy tuck.
As time goes on, the straight abdominal muscles, those on the front of the abdomen, may slip apart and then not return to their original place. This can be caused by multiple different things such as aging, pregnancy or by being overweight. This causes the waist to disappear and the abdomen to bend forward. When this happens, the space around the intestines also increases, which in turn can impair intestinal function and lead to problems with constipation and more. Posture can also deteriorate, and this can lead to back problems.
With a tummy tuck, the skin is tightened, smoothed out and the excess is removed. The navel is made nicer and the abdominal wall is strengthened. After a tummy tuck, the waist comes out and becomes more defined and the stomach becomes flatter. It usually also helps better the back problems and intestinal function. If you have troublesome or irritating plastic surgery scars in the abdominal area as a result of previous operations, a tummy tuck can also reduce the visibility of these scars. After surgery, it is important to use the Improscar Patch to get the best results and reduce your plastic surgery scars as much as possible. The product provides an optimal environment for scar healing and at the same time protects the scar against external stress such as chafing / irritation from clothes and more.
Improscar patch is a medical device with CE mark for sales in Europe and registered at FDA for sales in USA.
NOTE! THIS PRODUCT IS NOT SUITABLE IN THE FOLLOWING CASES:
– If you have a very active lifestyle including activities that makes you sweat a lot. This can lead to heat rash on the skin where Improscar Patch is situated due to sweat and heat buildup from the workout.
– If you use a high compression garment and/or pressure foam on top of the scar. This can lead to shearing which can result in blisters.
In the above cases we recommend to use one of our silicone based sticks instead.
