SKIN AT RISK

Human skin is a remarkable organ, the body's largest, but it is often taken for granted. Most people are content to let skin be until dryness, oiliness, a rash or a wrinkle rouses attention. But once they understand how skin functions, many reconsider the importance of the skin. Using soft silicone dressings to protect skin at risk could make a more significant difference than most people realize.

MEDICAL (Institutions, nursing homes, home care)

The most common causes of skin lesions are aging in combination with moist, friction and shearing forces, hurting against hard object, itching (eczema, intertrigo, psoriasis ) and pressure. A soft silicone dressing could be the best solution to keep your skin at risk intact.

AT HOME (households)

The most common causes of skin lesions at home are: friction, cuts, grazes and deformations of the foot. Deformation of the foot ( Hallux valgus) causes severe pain and discomfort and wearing (new) shoes can become almost impossible.

SPORTS

Pain due to friction from cycling shorts while cycling is a phenomena that is very common among cyclists, and one that can seriously affect both performance and comfort. Also moist due to an excess of transpiration during sport activities often gives severe skin irritation.
