Cica care is a silicone gel sheet that is medically-approved to treat dark, red, discolored and/or raised scar tissue. Scars are a part of the natural healing process of the skin after an illness, surgery, injury, burns or piercings. Some scars become raised, discolored, stiff, and inflexible. Cica care can be used to prevent large, keloid scars from forming or to reduce their size. To date, this gel sheet has been used to treat over 1 million people worldwide who were at risk of forming scars, or who wanted to reduce the signs and symptoms of scars after

injury.

Cica care is safe for both children and adults who are at risk of scar formation, or who want to reduce the signs and symptoms of scars. This gel sheet has been shown to be strong, re-usable, and comfortable. It can be used during the daytime, and also at night, while the user is sleeping. Like many products designed to reduce discoloration and improve the appearance of scars, Cica care is more effective when it is used on recent scars, as opposed to older scars that may have been present for many years.

Cica care is re-usable, and it also is self-adhesive to the skin, not requiring additional adhesives or dressings. Many hospitals worldwide use flexible silicone gel coverings for hypertrophic and keloid scars. Different people develop scar tissue differently. Flexible gel coverings are designed to treat scars that grow rapidly, are discolored, and could be large and raised, especially keloid scars.

Some gel sheets designed for skin covering can grow hard and stiff, and are subject to crumbling. Cica care is a type of gel sheet that uses silicone to be longer-lasting and resistant to deterioration and crumbling. This gel sheet is also able to be used in difficult-to-cover areas, such as the chest and even earlobes. As many people may develop scars after piercing, the ability to cover earlobes is a good benefit of Cica care.

This

type of gel covering should not be used on broken skin, but it can be used on recently-healed incisions and scars. Cica care lasts up to 28 days. It is able to be washed and re-used every two weeks. Once they become difficult to clean, pieces of Cica care gel covering should be discarded and replaced.

Cica care has been used successfully for over ten years. It may be purchased from pharmacies. Several different research studies have shown that the gel covering can be effective in reducing scar size and improving scar coloring. Up to 90 percent of scars treated with this type of silicone gel covering in different studies showed improvement. Cica care covering may also help to improve skin condition and texture, and can also make scarred skin become more flexible. Because it lasts longer than other silicone gel coverings for scars, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASC_X12 can be more affordable, when used according to directions. People who use http://www.saveritemedical.com/product/cica-care-adh-gel-sheet-4-3-4in-x-6in-w-instructions.html tend to use it longer than other types of gel coverings, because it is more easily cleaned, and does not deteriorate as quickly.
