Areopexy (6.985 x 1.90 cm)(1 Pair)

The Areopexy form was designed for use following the Lejour  ( lollipop ) Augmentation Technique. Unlike standard silicone gel sheets for scars, the areopexy form is specialised to accomodate the incisions used with Lejour ( lollipop ) breast augmentation and is a silicone patch for scars in an ideal “lollipop” configuration. The areopexy forms are sold in pairs and can be cut to size.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

  1. Wash both scar and hands per cleaning instructions.
  2. Open the non-sterile pouch containing the Silicone Gel Sheet.
  3. Remove the gel sheeting from the plastic substrate liner(s) prior to use.
  4. It may be cut into smaller pieces using scissors or a scalpel. Once you have determined the appropriate size of sheeting to use, apply tacky side to the scar. The gel sheeting should fully cover the scar and extend ¼ inch all the way around the scar border.
  1. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Remove every 12 hours to wash both the scar and the gel sheet using SilqueClenz™. In a basin of warm water, work up a small amount of lather with the soap. Gently wash the piece of gel sheeting in the soapy water, rinse, and then air dry. Make sure the sheeting is completely dry before re-applying to the scar. After washing, rinsing and drying the scar site re-apply the piece of gel sheeting.

WEARING TIME

Optimal wearing time for Silicone Gel Sheeting is 24 hours per day. If it is not possible to wear the gel sheet for the recommended 24 hour period, a minimum of 12 hours per day is required, washing per the instructions above once in that period. Follow this procedure each day, washing and re-applying the gel sheeting to the scar for 1 to 2 weeks. At that time the piece of gel sheeting will begin to lose its adhesive quality and/or may become embedded with surface dirt. When this occurs, discard the piece of gel sheeting and apply a new piece.

The overall optimal period of use is usually 8 to 12 weeks.
