Its atraumatic design means it adheres gently to the skin and can be removed without causing irritation or discomfort.

Question 49

When and how should the Nokori Scar Tape be used?

Accepted Answer

Nokori Scar Tape should be used after a procedure to support the healing process and reduce the risk of abnormal scarring. It protects and compresses the scar area, acting as a protective barrier while applying gentle pressure to minimise raised scar tissue. The tape also helps balance moisture levels, replicating the occlusion properties of healthy skin while still allowing oxygen flow for better scar healing. If any mild skin reactions occur due to adhesives, use intervals can be shortened, or the tape can be paused in favour of using Scar Balm.

Question 59

How long should I wear the tape each day?

Accepted Answer

Wear the tape for a minimum of 12 hours a day for optimal results. If you have sensitive skin, start with shorter wear times and gradually build up to 12 hours as your skin adjusts

Question 60

How often should I replace the tape?

Accepted Answer

Each strip can be used for up to 7 days, but this varies based on individual skin type and lifestyle. Some people replace it daily, others every few days, and some wear it for the full week—replace it whenever it loses adhesion or becomes worn.

Question 61

Can I shower or exercise while wearing the tape?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but excessive sweating or prolonged water exposure may weaken adhesion. If water gets trapped underneath, it may irritate the skin, so ensure the area is dry and comfortable after exposure

Question 62

Is the Silicone Tape reusable?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can remove and reapply the tape after showering, swimming, or applying Scar Balm at night, as long as your skin is dry and clean before reapplication. If you choose to reuse it, we suggest doing so for a maximum of 3 days, as the tape can quickly become worn and may collect particles from the air, which is not ideal. When removing the tape, place it back onto the protective backing you peeled it from and store it in a clean, dry place until you're ready to reapply. For best results, replace with a fresh piece every 3–7 days

Question 63

Can I wash the Silicone Tape?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can rinse the Silicone Tape under lukewarm water, but we recommend placing it back on its original backing for storage instead, as washing can be fiddly and causes the tape to wear out faster; if reusing, store it properly and replace it with a fresh piece after 3 days

Question 64

Can I cut the tape down the middle to get more uses?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can, but the width of the tape helps reduce tension on the incision, which supports better healing, so keeping it at its original size is recommended for optimal results
