Application TechniquesUpdated 6 months ago

🧼    Be sure that the sensor and patch area are clean and dry. 

🧴    Skin should be free of lotions or oils. 

🪒    We recommend that the area of skin be free from any hair. You can do this by shaving or clipping hair from the location.

❌    Do not apply to damaged skin such as cuts, scrapes, bruises, rashes, or sunburns.

⏰    It is recommended to apply the patch before bed to allow the adhesive to set well before any activities.

💪    For maximum adhesive strength we recommend wiping the area of skin with an adhesive wipe such as Skin Tac.

🛀    When the patch becomes wet from showering or swimming, gently pat it dry with a  towel.

🙅    Do not dry patch with a hair dryer as this can damage the adhesive.

👕    Try to prevent clothing from rubbing against the ends of the patch as this will make it peel faster.

✂️    If the patch begins to fray or come off the skin, clip it with scissors to prevent more peeling or fraying.
