FAQs

How do I apply CGM adhesive patches correctly?
To apply CGM adhesive patches, start with clean and dry skin. Remove the backing from the patch, position it carefully over the CGM sensor, and press firmly to ensure good adhesion. Make sure the patch sits flat against the skin to avoid any lifting.

Are CGM adhesive patches waterproof?
Many CGM adhesive patches are designed to be water-resistant, allowing you to shower, swim, or exercise without worrying about them coming off. However, it's best to check the product specifications to confirm the level of water resistance.

Can I use CGM adhesive patches on sensitive skin?
Yes, many CGM adhesive patches are formulated specifically for sensitive skin, featuring hypoallergenic materials that help minimize irritation. If you have particularly sensitive skin, look for patches that are labeled as such.

How long do CGM adhesive patches last?
