Review: Essential for facial scar prevention. - I'm writing this to help any ladies (or men) who want to prevent scarring on their face in particular. I accidentally scratched the area under my right cheek with a blunt sharp plastic object that caused a 1 inch gash. It was about 0.4mm in depth. -I immediately washed my face with soap and water. -Put neosporin ointment on the area. -Covered it with this dressing on top of the wound (make sure the dressing also covers the perimeter of the wound atleast 3cm). I left it on for 2 weeks total- no washing, no sun exposure, no air exposure, except to change the dressing once in between. I tried not to get it wet for too long when showering, either. After the first week when the dressing ends started to peel, I took it off carefully, and added a bit more neosporin ointment, and covered it with new dressing. And a week after that, I took off the dressing and no scar whatsoever! No discoloration or indented skin surface. I am truly thankful for this product. FYI, please don't forget sunscreen once the dressing comes off.
Review: Duoderm is effective - I have an issue that is atopical and use various medications, lotions, creams and Dupixent; and Duoderm dressings. For small areas Duoderm is more effective that prescription creams.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these waterproof?  So if it is on your finger, and you wash your face with your hands, does the bandage come off or does it survive?**
A: Very much so. I've been using these to heal road rash (and similar injuries for 15+ years) and they will survive 2-3 hot shower/bath cycles.
DO NOT use lotions, moisturizers nor oils near the edges of this type of bandage.

Failures occur most often due to (from most often to least):
() sharp corners - they start peeling off easily with any friction like normal clothing or bed fabric. SOLUTION: cut broad round corners.
() skin oil - it is ABSOLUTELY imperative that the skin is as oil/grease free as possible. Rubbing alcohol is the best way to go EVEN IF you only use it on the skin adjacent to the injury. In the decade plus of using these this is the way these fail most often for me because during exercise my extra greasy skin is too much for the DuoDerm. If I'm having a lazy week I have got them to stay on 6-7 days.
() excess internal liquid (the icky failure mode) - when the wound has produced so much liquid that it has leaked out the edge the bandage is no longer sterile. It needs to be replaced.

**Q: Does this have the gel inside?**
A: Yes the gel is inside each one. I found it very effective. I changed it more frequently then they suggested, and the healing time seemed very acceptable

**Q: Is this product latex free?**
A: Yes, it’s says so in the description.

**Q: Are these the clear patches?**
A: How about saying that they aren’t transparent instead of right-fighting. They don’t match every skin tone, even amongst Caucasians. I wouldn’t say yellow either.
