How to Use

1. Clean the scar area and surrounding skin thoroughly with mild soap and water, then dry completely.
2. Measure the scar and cut Mepiform to ensure it extends at least 1 cm beyond the edges of the scar.
3. Remove the protective release film and apply the adhesive side of Mepiform directly over the scar.
4. Smooth the dressing gently to ensure good contact with the skin, avoiding wrinkles or air bubbles.
5. Mepiform can be worn 24 hours a day for up to 7 days. It can be removed for showering and reapplied, ensuring the edges are still adhering well.
6. Clean the dressing gently with lukewarm water if it loses adhesiveness, then air dry before reapplying.
7. Replace the dressing with a new one when it no longer adheres properly or after 7 days, whichever comes first.

Caution & Warnings

• Do not apply Mepiform to open wounds, infected areas, or if the skin around the scar is irritated.
• In case of skin irritation, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
• Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application to maximize adhesion and prevent irritation.
• Avoid using creams, lotions, or ointments under the dressing as they may reduce adhesion.
• Individuals with very sensitive skin should monitor for any adverse reactions.
• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.

Ingredients
