Solution Overview

Problem

Existing scar-preventing methods fail to effectively reduce skin tension and prevent scar formation, particularly in areas with high tension or large wounds, leading to complications such as appearance destruction and dysfunction.

Innovation Solution

A skin tension-reducing scar-preventing plaster with a divided film structure, adhesion gels, and traction strips connected to fixing blocks, allowing for controlled skin tension reduction through the use of silicone gel and a tension-reducing structure.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Object-affected harmful factors

If traditional scar-preventing methods are used, then scar formation is addressed, but skin tension is not effectively reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveskin tensionVSAvoidscar prevention effectiveness
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The plaster is divided into three distinct parts: a left adhesive part, a right adhesive part, and a middle silicone part. This segmentation allows the left and right parts to apply opposing牵引 forces to reduce skin tension, while the middle silicone part maintains moisture and prevents scar formation, thereby simultaneously addressing both skin tension reduction and scar prevention

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The invention merges two previously separate treatment approaches (skin tension reduction and scar prevention via silicone gel) into a single integrated plaster device. The adhesive parts provide tension reduction through mechanical牵引, while the silicone gel part provides scar prevention through hydration, creating a combined therapeutic effect

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If skin tension is reduced to prevent scars, then scar formation is inhibited, but the device structure becomes complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvescar formationVSAvoidplaster structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The plaster is designed as a multi-functional device where the adhesive parts serve dual purposes of securing the plaster to skin and providing mechanical牵引 to reduce skin tension, while the silicone gel part simultaneously provides hydration and physical protection to the wound, reducing the need for multiple separate devices

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The plaster uses thin film structures for the adhesive parts and silicone gel layer, allowing the device to conform to the skin surface while maintaining structural integrity. This thin-film approach reduces device complexity compared to rigid structures while still achieving the desired tension-reducing and scar-preventing effects

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

AI summary

The present disclosure provides a skin tension-reducing scar-preventing plaster, including a film stuck to the skin, where the film is divided into a left part, a silicone part and a right part, lower surfaces of the left part and the right part are both provided with adhesion gels, a lower surface of the silicone part is provided with a silicone gel, an area between the left part and the silicone part is a blank area, and an area between the right part and the silicone part is also a blank area; and a plurality of fixing blocks are fixedly mounted on the surface of the left part, a plurality of fixture blocks corresponding to the fixing blocks are fixedly mounted on the surface of the right part, traction strips are connected between the fixing blocks and the fixture blocks, and one ends of the traction strips are fixedly connected with the fixing blocks. In the present disclosure, the space position and the tension of the skin tissue in the silicone scope will be effectively reduced, thus playing a role in skin tension-reducing, helping the growth and healing of the skin tissue and further reducing the formation of the scar; and the cooperative use of a silicone plaster and a tension-reducing structure plays a role in preventing the scar.
