DermaSaver skin protectors are made from innovative breathable MicroSpring textile that replaces foam, gel and fleece. MicroSpring textile is a very special fabric. It is soft and springy with thousands of microfilaments per square cm. It is breathable with ample ventilation reaching the skin due to free air flow within microfilaments. MicroSpring textile presents superior moisture wicking properties that enable speedy transfer of moisture away from the skin. It is soft and stretchy and will not flatten or crumble. It is washable at 95⁰C (boiling wash) and can be tumble dried at high temperature. The MicroSpring textile fibre composition is 94% polyester and 6% spandex.

DermaSaver Skin Protectors are garment like and can be worn at all times, as or when required. You can wear DermaSavers in bed or in wheelchair and when walking.

There are DermaSavers for arm and hand protection, DermaSavers for leg and foot protection and non wearable DermaSavers that protect you when sitting in a wheelchair or lying in bed.

DermaSaver Shin Protectors User Testimonial by Mr Eric Matthews of Worthing, West Sussex.

DermaSavers are fully compatible with topical creams and ointments. And because they are breathable, allow air circulation and constant ventilation, they will protect the skin without the drawbacks of bandages or dressings. Moisture wicking properties of the fabric ensure that the skin remains dry and cool at all times.

DermaSaver Breathable Skin Protectors are protected with Aegis Microbe Shield permanently bonded to the fibres. Aegis Microbial Shield prevents bacterial and microbial growth. It is a permanent protection that does not fade, wash out or leach and lasts permanently for the duration of the DermaSaver protector's life.

Wearing body worn DermaSavers skin protectors protects fragile skin from sustaining damage. Wearing DermaSavers or lying on DermaSavers can protect exposed body areas from errosions, tears and other damage caused by external pressure and shear force. DermaSavers can also help to heal existing skin tears, splits or bruises without restriction or the inconvenience that can be caused by bandages or dressings. DermaSavers are self-supporting and will always spring back to shape - even after pressed down or scrunched.

DermaSaver non-wearable products can help to prevent pressure related soreness or surface abrasions on larger areas, such as the back, shoulders or buttocks. They can also protect fragile and delicate skin from abrasions caused by oxygen or feeding tubes.

DermaSaver Body Worn Range includes the following types of skin protectors for upper and lower limbs, wearable body protectors and non wearable pads for use on beds and chairs. You can review the individual DermaSavers on other pages of this website. DermaSavers are Class 1 Medical Devices.
