EMPLEMENTATION MODEL

1. Wash your hands before using the dressing. Clean and dry the scar area carefully, checking that the skin is completely dry and without remains of cream, ointment or oil to facilitate the application of the Tropholastine Reducer of Periareolar Scars.

2. Open the envelope and separate the protective layers from the circular dressing with softness. Place the dressing on the periareolar scar uniformly, making sure that folds are not formed and that all edges are fixed on the skin. If it is necessary to trim the deposit to adapt the size before placing it, the protective layer should not be separated before cutting and it should be ensured that it has a sufficient size to adhere to the healthy skin surrounding the scar.

3. Once placed, the Tropholastine Reducer of Periareolar scars can remain fixed on the surface of the skin up to seven days according to the scar type. The dressing is waterproof if applied without folding and all edges are fixed on the healthy skin around. The deposit is of one use. If the dressing starts to take off, replace it with a new Tropholastine Reducer of Scars.

4. To remove the dressing, gently lift a corner and pull carefully and lift the edges of the dressing until separated from the skin.
