Re: Grafted Scar Tissue Management with Silicon or TPE Gel Liners
Hello List Members: I would appreciate learning of anyone's clinical experience with using Silicone or Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPE) Gel Liners to assist in the management of Grafted Scar Tissue or Burn Scar Tissue with gel liners?
Also, the following site provides information the would suggest that Polyurethane is better than Silicone. <URL Redacted>
Based on this I would also ask if anyone has had experience with both Polyurethane and Silicone liners that yielded the same results?
Thank You in advance and I will post the responses, as I feel this may be significant information that to my knowledge has not been reported on within our profession.
