What is the Difrax Lovi Self-Cooling Pad used for?
The Difrax Lovi Self-Refreshing Pad is a maternity pad that combines two functions in a single product: it absorbs postpartum discharge and provides a cooling sensation in the perineal area after childbirth, a time whenintimate hygiene requires special attention.
Unlike compresses that need to be placed in the freezer, it requires no preparation: the built-in cooling element activates the moment you fold the pad. It is therefore convenient both in the maternity ward and at home, and can be slipped into your hospital bag.
According to Difrax, it is suitable for use after both vaginal delivery and cesarean section.
For perineal cleansing, we recommend the Difrax Lovi Perineal Bottle, which allows you to rinse the area with lukewarm water without rubbing.
What are the features of this pad?
The pad is made of a soft material with an absorbent core that holds up to 250 ml. An adhesive strip keeps it in place inside your underwear.
The cooling element is built into the pad: the cooling effect lasts up to 30 minutes after activation. The product has a shelf life of 3 years from the date of manufacture.
Helpful tip: Once the cooling effect wears off, the pad continues to absorb. Keep some standard maternity pads on hand to use during subsequent changes.
How do you use the Difrax Lovi Self-Cooling Pad?
Fold the pad in half to activate the cooling element, then place it inside the diaper and secure it with the adhesive strip. The cooling sensation lasts up to 30 minutes. The pad is intended for single use.
