WHAT IS DERMASILK®?
DermaSilk® is an innovative line of therapeutic garments for individuals suffering from skin or mucous membrane problems (such as atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, mycosis, candidiasis) or with sensitive skin. Its effectiveness stems from the synergistic action between the beneficial properties of pure silk fibroin (the finest part of silk, very similar to our skin) and the protective effect of a permanent antimicrobial agent. The latter controls and prevents the growth of bacteria and fungi on the fabric, while preserving the natural bacteria of the skin and mucous membranes. The antimicrobial protection lasts for the entire lifespan of the product (no migration to the skin or environment occurs; it withstands use and washing).
DermaSilk® is beneficial because:
> soothes sensitive skin;
> reduces itching and inflammation;
> limits perspiration and maintains proper thermal and hydrolipidic balance;
> restricts the growth of bacteria and fungi;
> promotes skin regeneration.
The DermaSilk® range is patented and is a CE-marked Class I medical device.
The seams of therapeutic garments are not only very thin but are also made to prevent friction when in contact with the skin. DermaSilk® range garments are natural silk-colored and have not undergone a dyeing process. Some limited products are made from dyed yarn (e.g., tights, comfort socks) or dyed with cellulose (e.g., black briefs), and no color loss occurs.
