Mepiform Silicone Scar Care Dressings

If you're managing a scar from surgery, a C-section, a burn, or an old injury, Mepiform by Mölnlycke is one of the most recommended silicone treatments for softening, flattening, and fading raised or discolored scars over time. Unlike a bandage that simply covers, these thin, flexible sheets work with your skin — worn daily over weeks to help both new and existing scars, including hypertrophic and keloid types, become smoother and less noticeable.

What sets Mepiform apart is Safetac technology, a gentle silicone adhesive layer that sticks securely without pulling at fragile scar tissue when you remove it. That means you can lift the dressing to check the skin and reapply the same sheet — often for several days — before replacing it. It's discreet, tan-colored, self-adherent, and low-profile enough to wear under clothing.

We stock the sizes people actually reach for:

• Mepiform 2 x 3 in (293299) — a compact rectangle ideal for smaller surgical scars, moles removals, or spot treatment.
• Mepiform 4 x 7 in (293499) — the go-to size for C-section, mastectomy, and larger surgical scars.
• Mepiform 1.6 x 12 in (293199) — a long strip well suited to abdominal, knee, or extended incision lines.

For best results, most people apply Mepiform to clean, dry, fully closed skin and wear it consistently — many follow it for 2 to 4 months, since silicone therapy works gradually. It's suitable for use once stitches are out and the wound has sealed, making it a natural next step after primary wound closure.

Mepiform pairs well with the rest of our Advanced Wound Care range, and you'll find related options among our Silicone Dressings. Explore the full Wound Care selection for everything from closure to scar management.
