Effective silicone sheet therapy
Most effective and easy to use 4 Clinical references by Mepiform.
Prof. Franco Bassetto
Professor of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery and Chief of the Plastic Surgery Clinic, Padova University Hospital, Italy
‘The gold standard in scar care today is silicone therapy. To achieve the best possible outcomes, it is important to understand which kind of silicone therapy to use and when to use it. The main benefit we look for in a product or protocol is effective reducetion of scar size, prevention of hypertrophic or pathologic scars. Mepiform's medical grade silicone sheets checks all these boxes.’
Prof. Klaus Eisendle, MBA
Professor of Dermatology and Head of the Dermatology Department at Bolzano Hospital, Italy
''Professor Klaus Eisendle has treated patients with scars for many years and he has a clear opinion on Mepiform: ‘The main thing we want is relief for the patient. Improvement, not only cosmetically, but also functionally. If scars are hard and distressing they can cause pain. Also, you always want the best possible outcome regarding discoloration and elevation of the scar. I found these properties in Mepiform® by Mölnlycke®, and I must say the treatment results are superior.’
