How to Use:
- Ensure the child’s umbilical area is clean, dry, and free from creams, oils, or powders before application.
- Gently press the protruding navel inward with clean hands, then center the Media Umbilical Band For Child over the belly button.
- Peel off the protective backing and apply the patch, smoothing the edges firmly to ensure full contact and secure adhesion.
- Begin with approximately 8 hours of daytime wear to monitor skin tolerance, gradually increasing wear time by about 2 hours per day if no irritation occurs, up to a maximum of 24-hour continuous use as tolerated.
- Remove the patch slowly and gently from one edge to avoid discomfort, allow the skin to rest, and replace with a fresh patch as recommended. Always remove during supervised tummy time or if the child shows any signs of discomfort.
Suitable For:
- Skin Types: Suitable for most baby and child skin types, including delicate and sensitive skin (monitor closely in very sensitive or allergy-prone skin)
- Hair Types: Not applicable
- Concerns: Protruding umbilicus, mild umbilical hernia appearance, need for gentle umbilical support and protection, maintaining a neat and smooth tummy area under clothing
Results:
- Comfort and improved neatness of the umbilical area are typically noticeable from the first applications due to gentle compression and coverage.
- With consistent use as advised by a healthcare professional, the umbilical area may appear flatter and more supported over time; duration and degree of improvement vary from child to child and should be monitored by a pediatrician.
Side Effects:
- May cause mild temporary redness or imprint marks on very sensitive skin after removal due to adhesive contact.
- In rare cases, children with extremely sensitive or allergy-prone skin may experience itching, rash, or irritation at the application site.
- Very rare allergic reactions to adhesive or materials may occur in predisposed individuals.
- Note: If severe redness, blistering, swelling, rash, or any signs of discomfort occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a pediatrician or dermatologist.
Precautions:
- Patch test on a small area of the child’s skin is recommended before first prolonged use.
- Avoid application on broken, infected, or severely irritated skin around the umbilical area.
- For external use only; do not place patch near the child’s mouth, nose, or airway.
- Discontinue use if irritation, persistent redness, or discomfort occurs and seek medical advice.
- Use only under parental supervision and, ideally, with pediatric guidance for umbilical hernia or protrusion management.
- Keep out of reach of children when not in use; do not allow the child to play with or chew on the patch.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat to maintain adhesive performance.
