You can get it in your local drugstore like Walgreens
Description
* 3.0 x 2.25 in.
* Sterile.
* Advanced care.
* Faster healing than with an ordinary bandage.
* Minimizes appearance of scars.
* Helps minimize pain.
* With Compeed Moisture Seal Technology.
* For small to larger minor wounds.
* Johnson & Johnson First Aid brand Advanced Healing is a flexible and absorbent material that acts in place of a scab and encourages fast, natural healing.
* Faster Healing than with an Ordinary Bandage:
o This unique pad is clinically tested, and proven, to allow for faster healing than with an ordinary bandage.
o Designed to stay on for several days, the pad acts like an instant scab to seal in your body's own natural healing fluids and to seal out water, dirt, and germs that can cause infection.
* Minimizes Appearance of Scars:
o A scab may leave behind a noticeable change in the appearance of healed skin, commonly know as a scar.
o By preventing scab formation, Advanced Healing helps minimize the appearance of scars.
* Helps Minimize Pain:
o The Advanced Healing pad absorbs excess moisture to form a white gel cushion over the wound.
o The gel cushion provides protection from bumping and maintains moisture balance.
o Nerve endings are kept moist, which may help minimize pain and a dried wound can crack and be painful.
* Leave the pad in place for several days for optimal healing.
* The Advanced Healing pad comes with its own adhesive so no tape is needed.
* Repels water, dirt and germs that can cause infection.
* Designed to stay in place for several days.
* Provides superior comfort and is slim and discreet.
* Hypoallergenic.
* The power to heal.
* A covered wound heals faster than an uncovered one.
* Before use, see instructions inside package for correct application/removal methods, and warnings.
* For best adhesion, warm product in hands before application. |

| jumbosstar42 - you can cut a larger piece into small pieces. I cut it into about 1 cm by 1.5 cm pieces for my scar, and a pack of silicone pads lasted ages. Although I applied the pads for months and months (they take long time to work), but went through just a two or three boxes of pads. For larger scars one would need larger quantities. If you can not find them in your country, you should be able to order those on internet from US. |
