Adaptskin Description
Adaptskin by Adaptlabs is a prosthetic skin care product specifically designed as a prosthetic skin protectant and conditioner for amputees. Adaptskin is available in two viscosities; standard and very thick formulas. If you’re trying decide which formula to choose, either the 50 or 90, please consider the following. Adaptlabs designed their Adaptkin 50 formula for those normal day-to-day skin issues such as chaffing, rubbing related to your prosthetic socket, heat rashes and dry skin. Their Adaptskin 90 is designed for prosthetic users dealing with more severe skin issues. For example, if you are suffering through painful dry skin, cracking, new or tender skin, or recently healed wounds you may want to consider Adaptlabs’ thicker version Adaptskin 90.
Benefits
Adaptskin is fantastic for protecting the surface layers of your skin by forming a barrier that lessens water loss from the outer layer of the skin. This makes Adaptskin great for prosthetic use by remoisturizing your limb and lessening trauma caused by friction. Adaptskin 90 not only moisturizes, but also works great in high friction areas due to its thicker consistency. As a prosthetic user you can expect less skin breakdown and added comfort.
Suggested Use
Adaptskin is used along areas of high friction within your prosthesis. Consider applying on any boney prominences, for example the front tibia bone for below-knee prosthetic users or along the inner brim of your above-knee socket.
How-To Apply
For best results Adaptlabs suggests cleaning those affected areas with a hypoallergenic prosthetic cleanser and allow your skin to dry. Apply a small dollop using your index finger and gently massage Adaptskin 50 or Adaptskin 90 into those affected areas for at least one minute or until your skin feels smooth and non greasy.
