A new innovative range of skin protection products from the manufacturers of the HipSaver soft hip protector. DermaSavers protect fragile skin from sustaining damage caused by friction, rubbing, abrasion and and pressure that could lead to skin breakdowns, tears and splits. DermaSavers can also help to heal existing skin tears, splits and lacerations without the restriction of bandages and dressings.
DermaSaver products are made from innovative breathable MicroSpring textile which is a very special fabric. It is soft and springy with thousands of microfilaments per square inch. It is breathable with ample ventilation reaching the skin due to free air flow within the microfilaments. MicroSpring textile offers superior moisture wicking properties that enable speedy transfer of moisture away from the skin. It is soft and stretchy and will not flatten or crumble. It is washable at 95°C (boiling wash) and can be tumble dried at high temperature.
Never before seen in Australia, this revolutionary multi-layered textile offers breathability, moisture transfer and anti-microbial protection not possible with foams, gels or fleece. Up to 20,000 microfilaments per square inch act as mini springs which flex to reduce pressure on bony prominences such as heel, elbow, vertebra and trochanter. This unique fabric construction allows for a loose-fiting, non constricting, flexible sleeve which holds its shape. DermaSaver skin tubes won't bunch up or slip down.
DermaSaver Skin Protectors are garment like and can be worn at all times, as or when required. They can be worn in bed, in wheelchairs and when walking, and are available in a full range of pressure relieving and skin protecting products. They are fully compatible with topical creams and ointments, and because they are breathable and allow air circulation and constant ventilation, they will protect the skin without the drawbacks of bandages or dressings. The moisture wicking properties of the fabric ensure that the skin remains dry and cool at all times.
DermaSavers are protected with Aegis Microbe Shield permanently bonded to the fibres. Aegis Microbial Shield prevents bacterial and microbial growth. It is a permanent protection that does not fade, wash out or leach and lasts permanently for the duration of the DermaSaver protector's life.
