Frequently asked questions
Does the gel help improve skin health?
Yes. The cushions are constructed from Silipos mineral oil gel, which is specifically designed to actively moisturize and condition the skin while it provides protection.
Can I use these to prevent skin breakdown?
Absolutely. These squares serve as a protective interface that mitigates the effects of pressure, friction, and shear forces, making them an excellent choice for individuals at risk of skin breakdown, such as those with diabetic insensitive feet.
Is the backing secure for daily movement?
Yes, the product features a self-adhesive backing. This ensures the cushion remains securely in the desired position during use, providing a consistent barrier between the skin and external surfaces.
Is the material soft against sensitive skin?
The cushions are engineered to be soft and pliable. They are constructed from medical-grade gel that conforms to the contours of the body to remain comfortable during extended wear.
Can these be paired with orthotics or splints?
These squares are highly versatile and work perfectly as a comfortable interface for:
- Hand splints
- Orthotic devices
- Protecting sensitive localized skin areas
Are these suitable for clinical and home use?

What are the exact dimensions of the squares?
Each square measures 1/8 x 4 x 4 inches, providing a generous surface area for effective pressure and friction relief.
Does the material protect against shear forces?
Yes. The mineral oil gel material is specifically engineered to act as a buffer against friction and shear forces, protecting the skin from abrasion.
How should I describe the material texture?
The gel is a smooth, supple, and flexible sheet. It has a semi-transparent appearance that allows it to blend discreetly against the skin while maintaining a soft contact point.
