Support Every Step of Your Dexcom G7 Routine

Everything you need to protect your Dexcom G7 and care for your skin.

Taking care of your skin is an important part of living with diabetes, especially if you wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), insulin pump, or other diabetes devices. Daily wear, adhesives, and frequent sensor changes can sometimes lead to irritation, discomfort, or difficulty keeping devices securely in place.

A simple skin care routine can help protect your skin, improve device adhesion, make removals easier, and support healthy recovery between sensor changes. Whether you're new to wearing diabetes devices or looking to improve your current routine, these five steps can help you keep your skin comfortable and ready for everyday wear.

Follow our simple 5-step approach: Protect, Secure, Prep, Remove, and Recover. Each step is designed to help you get the most out of your diabetes devices while supporting healthy skin along the way.

Protect

Keep your backup Dexcom G7 sensor protected wherever life takes you. The Dexcom Protective Travel Case helps keep your extra sensors safe, organized, and protected from everyday bumps and damage. Its compact design makes it easy to pack in a purse, backpack, or carry-on for travel and daily use.

Secure

Help keep your Dexcom G7 sensor in place through daily wear, exercise, and travel. Expression Med Dexcom G7 Tapes and Skin Grip Dexcom G7 Tapes provide added security to help keep your sensor in place during workouts, swimming, and everyday activities. Available in a variety of colors and designs, they offer both protection and personal style.

Prep

Prepare your skin for stronger adhesion and longer-lasting wear. Skin Prep and Skin Tac create a protective barrier that helps improve tape and sensor adhesion. Applying these products before sensor placement can help reduce lifting and extend wear time.

Remove

Remove sensors and patches gently—without the tugging, sticky residue, or discomfort. Adhesive Remover helps dissolve sticky residue for easier sensor and overpatch removal. It can make the process more comfortable while helping protect sensitive skin from unnecessary irritation.

Recover

Help soothe and support skin after device removal. Site Hero and Lavior Diabetic Wound Therapy Gel help moisturize and care for skin after sensor or patch removal. They can help leave skin feeling refreshed and ready for your next sensor application.

Complete Your G7 Routine

Taking care of your Dexcom G7 goes beyond sensor application. From protecting your backup sensors and securing your device with overpatches to prepping your skin before wear and caring for it afterward, the right accessories can help make every sensor change easier and more comfortable.

Whether you're at home, at work, or traveling, having a complete routine can help you stay organized and prepared every step of the way.
