Product Information
Full details
The Hansaplast Scars Reducer is designed for individuals seeking a non-invasive, clinical approach to minimizing the appearance of raised and discolored hypertrophic or keloid scars. By utilizing transparent, breathable adhesive patches, this product activates the skin's natural regeneration process to flatten and soften scar tissue over time; however, users should be aware that results require consistent daily application over several weeks to become visible.

FAQs
How long should I use the patches?
For optimal results, it is recommended to use the patches consistently for at least 8 weeks, though initial results may be visible after 3 to 4 weeks.
Can I use the patches on a fresh wound?
No, the patches must only be used on completely closed and healed skin.
Are the patches waterproof?
While the material is breathable, they are not intended for use while swimming or bathing. Replace the patch if it becomes saturated with water.
Can I wear makeup over the patch?
Yes, due to its transparent and thin design, you can apply makeup over the patch once it is securely adhered to the skin.
Can I reuse a patch?
No, each patch is designed for single use to ensure maximum hygiene and adhesive efficacy.
Are these effective for acne scars?
They are designed for hypertrophic and keloid scars; effectiveness on pitted acne scars may be limited.
Troubleshooting
The patch is peeling off before 12 hours.
Ensure the skin is completely free of oils, lotions, or moisture before application.
Skin irritation or redness around the patch area.
Remove the patch immediately and allow the skin to breathe before re-applying, or discontinue use if the irritation persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To apply, ensure the skin area is clean and dry. Remove the protective paper from the adhesive side of the patch and apply it directly over the scar. If the scar is smaller than the patch, cut it to the appropriate size using clean scissors. If the scar is larger, place multiple patches edge-to-edge.
Care Instructions:
- Change the patch daily to maintain hygiene and effectiveness.
- Do not apply to open wounds, infected skin, or burns.
- If skin irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
- Keep the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
