DESCRIPTION

Cicatrex Open bonnet

Cicatrex compression garments for wound healing are now a first-choice treatment for burn victims, reducing the need for reconstructive surgery as much as possible.

However, their usefulness does not end with the healing of burns; they are also invaluable in the treatment of many other conditions, such as reconstructive surgery and lymphology.

CICATREX Compression garments

Indications

• Cicatrex compression garments are designed for the management of burns and the treatment of scars to limit the need for reconstructive surgery.
• They can also be used in the treatment of lymphoedema or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.
