\n\nPeace Of Mind Is Priceless
\n\nI wish I had found these before, after several years now of skin tearing on my legs and so having to be extra careful all the time, feeling uncomfortable in busy places where the risk of knocks is great, finding these socks has been amazing. Knocks that would have torn the skin without them has left at most a bruise. They are comfy to wear and although they feel quite thick I find my feet get no hotter than in thin cotton socks.They may seem expensive and I did consider long and hard spending the money on them but it was money well spent. Customer service has been fantastic too, thank you.

\n\nSatisfaction With Protectors
\n\nJust to let you know my satisfaction with your protectors. Because of longterm medication my skin has become paper thin and I have suffered badinjuries on my legs and arms. I was, therefore, extremely happy to find aproduct which would help save these injuries. I have worn Dermatuff ThinSkin Protectors for four months and in that time, I am very pleased to say,have been injury free. Thank you for a wonderful product.

\n\nDermatuff Socks As A Low-Pressure Compression Sock
\n\nAs a Health Care Professional of some 40 years’ experience I would like to bring to the attention of the visitors to your website an apparent unexpected benefit of Dermatuff.During my many visits to participants in the Dermatuff Evaluation between 2013 and 2014 I began to notice that users of the Socks were experiencing a more general improvement in their overall health as a result of improved blood circulation in their legs. People who have severe lower limb vascular impairment can suffer considerable pain particularly at night. Their legs can take on a black appearance which gradually worsens. If action cannot be taken to alleviate the symptoms, then amputation is eventually the only solution.Circulation can be improved by applying pressure to the legs but the question is always how much pressure? The risk of this is that too much pressure can easily be applied thus worsening the situation. The skilled and experienced nurse can, when applying bandages judge exactly what pressure she should apply. The shortcut and less flexible solution is to prescribe compression stockings calibrated to apply an exact pre-calibrated pressure.The problem about this is that the lowest pressure calibration for a compression stocking is Class 1 RAL (18-21 mmHg). When we designed our Thin Skin Protection Socks we took steps to ensure that the pressure applied by the Socks would normally be about 8-10 mmHg. We decided that this would avoid any risk to patients caused by the use of unexpected pressure, while still allowing sufficient pressure to prevent them from slipping down. It now appears from considerable experience in the use of Dermatuff Socks that this low-pressure can also have a very beneficial effect on blood circulation in addition to the planned action of preventing skin tears.

\n\nRecommend Dermatuff Products
\n\nI recently purchased two pairs of your Dermatuff Socks for my mother and just had to write to say how pleased we both are that I did. During recent times my mother was finding that the slightest knock to her legs would result in broken skin and bruising which took ages to heal, she began to dread any task that involved the possibility of her legs being knocked. However since discovering the Dermatuff Socks she is able to take to tasks with renewed confidence, gardening has once again become a pleasure. We would both recommend Dermatuff products without hesitation and will definitely be purchasing more of your products in the future.

\n\nBrilliant Idea
\n\nI was recently delighted to come across a description of your product in the September issue of the ‘Good Housekeeping’ magazine. A brilliant idea! It is on page 86 under a sub-heading – ‘5 Ways To Improve Your Family’s Health In September, Help Thin Skin’. Having a husband who takes Warfarin on a daily basis and does, as a result, along with the effects of age, suffer from thin skin – I was especially interested. He also enjoys DIY but of course this frequently gives rise to knocks, bruises, abrasions and cuts! In an attempt to provide him with some degree of protection, I fitted him out with my own version of arm protectors consisting of double layers of the tubular bandage ‘Tubigrip’ which has been fairly successful. However, of course your product, incorporating Kevlar sounded ideal and I wasted no time in ordering them online. In fact they arrived today, are comfortable, a perfect fit and have now been given a place next to his tool box! So a big thank you from us both for hopefully a future with less trauma in the Cottrell household!

\n\nDidn't Have Any Rubbing
\n\nRecently I went on a skiing holiday and wore the socks under my ski boots. I didn’t have any rubbing from the boots, thanks to the socks. I think the colour of the socks (Grey/Navy) is practical and I would definitely wear them again! Isabelle Garcia Age 16.

\n\nSocks Are Wonderful
\n\nI think the socks are wonderful.My mom wore them on Sunday to play a few holes of golf – something she has always ended up with a cut on her leg, and she did actually trip a bit, and nothing happened! Another time, we would have ended up in hospital. So, thanks. They’re a great product.

\n\nReduces The Pain Considerably
\n\nI don's suffer from thin skin in either the physical or the metaphorical sense but what I do have is very painful arthritis in my elbows. The gentle pressure applied by Dermatuff Sleeves reduces the pain considerably.

\n\nYour Products Are Amazing
\n\nI am a carer for the elderly. I have to say I do think your products are amazing and if you have not already done so, I would tell all the Care Agencies and Care Homes out there about your products.I would highly recommend them to any carers of the elderly who are dealing with skin tags and issues of thinning of the skin due to age.

\n\nExtremely Pleased
\n\nI have received my order and want to thank you for all your help. Your product is exceptional. I had ordered a few other brands and was not able to use them for my father. They were either too thin or the size was not as stated. I am extremely pleased with these and so is my father. I thank you again for your help. I am sure I will be ordering again in the future.

\n\nProvided Me Relief
\n\nI am Susan Dombrowski, I am 57 years old and live in California. I have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, because of this I have very loose joints and very thin and stretchy skin. I always used to bruise easily, but entering my 50s, aging made the bruising even worse. Any little bump will cause huge bruises; anything more will cause tears and bleeding.I had been looking for a skin protection product for a while, and now that I have found The Dermatuff products I would like to share with others how they have helped me.I volunteer at our local senior centre and did not wear the Dermatuff sleeves for the first two days after I had received them because I was self-conscious. As a result I had bruises all over my arms those first days so I decided I would just wear the sleeves when I worked there.The next day I wore them in and explained to the other workers why I wore them. They all agreed it was a good idea and one younger volunteer (mid 20s) thought they looked cute. I did not get any new marks while wearing them, so they definitely work. Now I wear them everywhere, without concern, to volunteer work, grocery store, doctor’s appointments, all around the house night and day.This morning early I found that I had some new bruises just above where the sleeve ends but not where the sleeves had covered my arms, I must have scratched or something in my sleep.The sleeves provided me relief for doing simple chores around the house. One of the greatest benefits was when doing laundry. It used to be a concern since any bump against the washer or dryer would cause bruising. We also like to travel across the USA on the train. Last summer we took the train and I was so bruised by the end of the trip because of all the bouncing around. We are planning another train trip and I intend to wear the sleeves all the time. I am hoping for the same excellent results as I have had at home. I recommend other Ehlers sufferers to give Dermatuff sleeves a go.

\n\nEasy To Put On
\n\nOne of my residents whose skin is very frail and vulnerable was constantly causing herself skin tears. Once wearing Dermatuff socks this has not happened. The socks are easy to put on and although quite thick has suited this particular resident well as her legs are always cold. Once on, the socks remain in place until removed. I have no hesitation in recommending this product to anyone and will definitely order more in the future if needed.

\n\nReally Helped To Limit The Damage Done
\n\nWe bought two sets of these sleeves and stockings for a lady with a long-term condition which means that her skin is extremely thin and tears incredibly easily. It was becoming a major problem in her life, so we looked on the internet for something that she could wear to protect her forearms and shins which were the areas where tears most commonly occurred. These sleeves/stockings have been amazing; they are comfortable and have really helped to limit the damage done from minor bumps as well as more serious knocks etc. They have been brilliant! We will be purchasing some more in the skin colour when they become available in a few weeks time.

\n\nNot Suffered Any Damage
\n\nI have weak skin on my legs and I bruise very easily. With the Dermatuff stockings I have not suffered any damage. My greatest pleasure and delight was when I hit my leg at home against a hard low metal radiator, and dreaded looking to see the damage, anticipating a gash or very bad tear, only to find that there was no damage at all. I could not believe it.

\n\nAmazing Results
\n\nAfter having participated in the stocking trial and seen for myself the amazing results in preventing wounds such as skin flaps to the elderly residents in our care home, I am very pleased to be able to recommend them as such a simple yet effective wound prevention tool.

\n\nSignificantly Reduced The Risk Of Skin Damage
\n\nWe were very interested in being included in the trial for DERMATUFF protective socks. We proved that their use had significantly reduced the risk of skin damage to the legs of an individual who had previously sustained tears to very fragile skin. The socks proved comfortable to wear and laundered well. DERMATUFF is a product that we consider every time, whenever we have an identified risk of skin damage to a resident’s legs.
