An adhesive pressure bandage for treating a wound or reduce scarring of a skin of a patient, the pressure bandage including a pressure member made of an elastic material. The pressure member comprising a curved central portion and two end portions. The pressure member also having two sides, an inner surface facing towards the patient and an outer surface facing away from the patient, and between the inner surface and the skin of the patient is an adhesive to attach the pressure member to the skin of the patient. Between the inner surface of the pressure member and the skin of the patient is a treatment device that is in contact with the wound, after the adhesive pressure bandage is applied to the skin of the patient, this treatment device is located between a central portion of the pressure member and the wound. The curved central portion of the pressure member being such that when the treatment member is initially placed against the wound, and the adhesive pressure bandage is not yet adhered to the skin of the patient, the pressure member is concave relative to a surface of the skin of the patient. When the adhesive pressure bandage is adhered to the skin of the patient and largely follows a contour of the skin of the patient, a deflection of the adhesive pressure bandage from its initial curved state to a state where it largely follows the contour of the skin of the patient produces a therapeutic pressure on the wound of the patient.

Pressure device

A pre-stressed pressure device for treating a wound or reduce scarring of a skin of a patient includes a substrate assembly having a first surface, a pressure member having a curve in a central portion, the pressure member being secured to the substrate assembly; a treatment device for exerting a pressure on the wound or the scarring, the treatment device being connected to a first area of the first surface; and an adhesive for applying the pressure bandage to the skin, the adhesive being disposed on a second area of the first surface, the first and second areas being non-overlapping.
