How to Use:

1. Ensure the scar area is thoroughly clean and dry before applying Mepiform.
2. Carefully remove the protective film from the adhesive side of the dressing.
3. Cut the Mepiform sheet to fit the exact size of your scar, ensuring it extends at least 1 cm beyond the scar edges for best results.
4. Apply the dressing directly onto the scar, ensuring smooth contact and full coverage without stretching the skin.
5. Mepiform should be worn for 24 hours a day for optimal efficacy, including during showering.
6. The dressing can be removed once daily for routine skin and scar inspection, and for cleaning the skin.
7. Wash Mepiform gently with lukewarm water and a mild, non-perfumed soap, then allow it to air dry completely before reapplying.
8. Replace the dressing every 3-7 days, or when its adhesive power begins to diminish.
9. The typical treatment duration ranges from 3 months to 1 year, depending on the scar's age and condition.

Caution & Warnings:

• Do not apply Mepiform to open wounds, infected areas, or broken skin.
• If a rash, irritation, or any adverse skin reaction occurs, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional.
• Always ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free from creams or lotions before application to maximize adhesion and prevent irritation.
• Avoid using moisturizing creams, ointments, or powders under the dressing, as they can impair adhesion and reduce effectiveness.
