Usage prévu
Grâce à la pression continue et uniforme exercée sur toute la
surface du vêtement de compression pour cicatrices, on obtient
un résultat positif au niveau de la cicatrisation et/ou de l'évolution
de la cicatrisation. L'application thérapeutique du vêtement
de compression se traduit par une réduction de la circulation
sanguine et une augmentation de l'élasticité des tissus. Cela
permet ainsi de réduire le risque de développement de cicatrices
hypertrophiques et/ou de chéloïdes, voire même de favoriser leur
diminution. L'objectif du traitement par compression est d'aplanir
la cicatrice, d'augmenter l'élasticité des tissus et de réduire la
rigidité de la cicatrice.
