Care/application

Tepelprothese aanbrengen

The nipple prostheses are attached with a medical adhesive that is water-resistant and stays in place for several days (up to a maximum of 10 days). This adhesive ensures that the prostheses remain securely in place, even during intensive sports and daily activities, allowing you to continue your normal routine without worries. Store the prostheses in a cool, dry place.

Applying the nipple prostheses

Wash and dry your hands

  1. Wash the skin where your prosthesis is to be placed and rub it dry. Ensure a non-steamy environment so that the skin does not sweat. Degrease the skin with a cleaner for even better adhesion.
  2. Practice where the prosthesis should go without glue. You can use a makeup pencil to mark the correct position
  3. Take the nipple prosthesis between your fingers and apply a thin layer of adhesive evenly on the back of the prosthesis using the brush
  4. Wait at least a minute before applying the prosthesis so that the adhesive can dry and become transparent.
  5. Place and press the prosthesis onto your skin, applying light pressure for a good contact – make sure to place the top of the prosthesis at the top for a custom fit.
  6. Do not shower or swim for 48 hours after placement of the prosthesis
  7. If the prosthesis comes loose, it can be glued back on. If the prosthesis is too loose, you can take it off, clean it, and then reattach it.|The prostheses should be stored in a cool, dry place
  8. Removing the prostheses and cleaning

remove and clean the prothesis

  1. Gently grasp the edge of the prosthesis and pull it off in the same way you would remove a bandage – start rolling it off from the bottom
  2. Remove any adhesive residue from the skin with solvent, wash the skin with soap and water 0%
  3. Remove any adhesive residue on the prosthesis with your thumb. Do not use fingernails. You can also use solvent; rub it with your hands until they are clean and then wash them with soap and water
  4. For even better adhesion, degrease with cleaner if the skin is ready for it
  5. After removing and cleaning, the prosthesis can be re-used
