Possible complications include:
Superficial maceration of the skin
Rash
Skin Discoloration
Pruritus
Sheeting tack and thickness vary
Rashes have been observed on skin under the KELOTOP®, this has been attributed to poor or insufficient hygiene. Similar rashes have been attributed to KELOTOP® being wrapped too tightly. Should a rash occur, stop using the KELOTOP® for 12 hours followed by using the KELOTOP® for 12 hours. If the rash persists, a physician should be contacted and gel sheeting use should be discontinued.
Discoloration of the skin covered by KELOTOP® has been reported, particularly in dark skinned patients. This effect appears to be transient, and may be similar to the discoloration experienced whenever an area of skin is covered for extended periods of time. If ingested, get medical help or contact Poison Control Center right away.
Some patients report differences in KELOTOP® surface tack and thickness from sheet to sheet. Perception of tack is subjective and the adhesive characteristic of KELOTOP® may vary. These variations do not affect the function of the product.
Small bubbles may form on the KELOTOP® after repeated washing and use. This does not have an impact on the function of the product. This medication should be used as directed by your physician during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Consult your doctor about the risks and benefits.
Do not use creams, lotions, sun block or other silicone products on your skin when wearing KELOTOP®. These products will create a barrier between the scar site and the silicone gel, preventing a proper healing environment.
Call your doctor about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
PRECAUTIONS:
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS Remove the gel sheeting every 12 hours to wash both the scar and the KELOTOP®. In a basin of warm water, work up a small amount of lather with the soap. Gently wash the piece of gel sheeting in the soapy water, rinse, and then air dry. Make sure the sheeting is completely dry before re-applying to the scar. After washing, rinsing and drying the scar site re-apply the piece of gel sheeting.
WEARING TIME Optimal wearing time for KELOTOP® is 24 hours per day. If it is not possible to wear the gel sheet for the recommended 24 hour period, a minimum of 12 hours per day is required, washing per the instructions above once in that period. Follow this procedure each day, washing and re-applying the gel sheeting to the scar for 7 days. At that time the piece of gel sheeting will begin to lose its adhesive quality and/or may become embedded with surface dirt. It is recommended to discard the piece of gel sheeting and apply a new piece.
The overall optimal period of use is usually 8 to 12 weeks.
