DESCRIPTION

Fine microfibre glove

Cicatrex compressive healing garments are now the first choice for the treatment of burn victims, minimising the need for reconstructive surgery.

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.

Scar treatment using compression

After a deep 2nd degree burn, patients face a major risk of hypertrophic scarring that can degenerate into keloids.

For which patients?

Burns(1)

• Prevention and treatment of hypertrophic scars, keloids and scar retraction.
• Treatment of burns of thermal, chemical or electrical origin.
• Compression of skin grafts.

Lymphology(2)

• Pubic and genital lymphoedema.
• Lymphoedema in children.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery

• Post-operative treatment of traumatic scars and surgical wounds.
• Follow-up to skin grafts.
• Prevention of hypertrophic scars.

Elhers-Danlos syndrome(3)

• Improves proprioception by compressing the limbs.
• Combats pain.
• Compression of 6 to 13.5 mmHg.

Cicatrex compression garments should be used as soon as healing allows(2).

Contraindications

Do not use in contact with damaged skin.
