Silicone dots or strips are sometimes used on the inside of the top band of thigh-high compression stockings to help keep them in place and prevent them from rolling down. The silicone dots create a grip on the skin, which can help hold the stockings in place and reduce slipping.
The silicone dots or strips are usually applied to the inside of the top band of the compression stockings and come in a variety of sizes and shapes. Some compression stocking manufacturers include silicone dots as a standard feature on their thigh-high stockings, while others may offer them as an optional add-on.
If you are experiencing issues with your thigh-high compression stockings rolling down, silicone dots may be a helpful solution. However, it is important to note that they may not be effective for everyone and that other solutions, such as a garter belt or adhesive skin dressings, may be necessary for some individuals. It is always a good idea to talk to a trained fitter who can assist you in finding the best solution for your specific needs.
