FAQs

When can I start using Dermelle after my C-section?
Once your incision has fully closed — no open skin, crusting, or oozing — typically 1 to 2 weeks post-surgery. Always get clearance from your OB or surgeon before starting.

My C-section was 2 years ago. Is it too late?
No. Scar tissue continues to remodel for longer than most people realise. Established scars can still soften, flatten, and fade with consistent silicone therapy. Many of our customers started years after their surgery and still saw meaningful improvement.

How long do I need to wear them each day?
8 to 12 hours. The sheets are discreet, skin-tone matched, and flexible — most customers wear them straight through their regular day without anyone knowing.

Can I wear Dermelle to sleep?
Yes. Many customers prefer overnight wear. As long as the sheet stays in place and causes no irritation, sleeping in it is perfectly fine.

How long does one sheet last?
7 to 10 days with daily use, washed gently and air-dried. Avoid soaps containing moisturisers or oils as these reduce adhesion.

How long until I see results?
Most customers notice reduced tightness, pulling, and itching within the first 1 to 2 weeks. Visible softening and fading typically begins between weeks 4 and 8. Full results: 60 to 90 days for newer scars, up to 6 months for established scars.

Will it work on my scar specifically?
Dermelle works on hypertrophic (raised, thickened) post-surgical scars, including C-section incisions. It is less effective on flat, fully mature scars that are already white and settled. If you're unsure, consult your dermatologist or surgeon.

Can I wear it to the gym?
Light activity is fine. For high-intensity workouts, remove the sheet beforehand and reapply after your shower — intense sweating can reduce adhesion.

Is it safe during breastfeeding?
Yes. Dermelle is applied to skin only and contains no active ingredients absorbed into the bloodstream.
