“Smart Scar-Care” Pad: for a “Scar-less” World

Hypertrophic scar is a common complication following burns, surgeries and trauma. It will cause aesthetic problems, and induce severe deformities, thus causing dysfunctions, particularly among the Asian population. "Smart Scar-Care" pad is a newly invented padding material for the better control of hypertrophic scar. It is composed of a specially designed silicone stiffener and the medical-grade silicone gel lining underneath was synthesized with unique formula. Together with pressure treatment modalities, "Smart Scar-Care" pad helps to distribute pressure evenly over the hypertrophic scar, thus reducing skin tension and at the same time creating occlusion effect. "Smart Scar-Care" pad is a highly conformable, durable, and comfortable padding material to be applied underneath the pressure garment.
