The Julius programme

Meet Julius — your child's companion through therapy.

For a child, wearing a compression garment for 23 hours a day, every day, for over a year, is hard. Juzo created the Julius programme to make it easier. A friendly hippo mascot, a storybook adventure, iron-on patches, and a cuddly toy — built around the idea that the impossible becomes possible when you have help.

As Juzo's UAE distributor, Healfit can offer the Julius programme to our paediatric patients. The full Julius starter kit — including the cuddly toy, storybook, iron-on patches and colouring set — is designed to accompany children through every fitting, check-up and milestone, helping turn therapy into something they can own.

A companion, not a treatment

Julius helps children see compression as an adventure with a friend, rather than something medical done to them.

Designed by paediatric experts

The Julius materials are developed with child psychologists and burns-care specialists, drawing on decades of experience.

What we treat

Two paths, both fully covered.

Children come to us for two distinct kinds of compression therapy. The first is scar management after a burn, surgery or injury. The second is lymphedema — congenital or following treatment for another condition. Both are treated with the same care, the same specialist fit, and the same Julius approach.

Scar management for children

Pressure-garment therapy is the gold standard worldwide for managing scarring after burns and surgery in children. Juzo ScarComfort flat-knit garments deliver consistent, certified compression — flattening scar tissue, reducing redness, improving flexibility, and lowering long-term cosmetic and functional consequences.

  • Burn scars (first & second-degree healing)
  • Hypertrophic scarring
  • Keloid management
  • Post-surgical scars
  • Skin grafts & donor sites

Lymphedema in children

Childhood lymphedema deserves the same level of specialist attention as any compression need — and we treat it that way. Juzo Expert flat-knit garments are sized specifically for children, providing gentle, accurate compression for primary (congenital) and secondary lymphedema, fitted with the same Julius approach to make therapy feel friendly rather than clinical.

  • Primary (congenital) lymphedema
  • Secondary lymphedema
  • Lymphedema after childhood cancer
  • Chronic oedema management
What the Julius programme includes

When the Julius programme is offered, your child doesn't just leave with a garment — they leave with a complete kit designed to help them, you, and your wider family adjust to the months ahead.

Making it theirs

For families & clinicians

Whether you're a parent or a therapist, start here.

Healfit serves two distinct audiences for paediatric compression. Parents need reassurance, practical guidance, and a warm fitting environment. Clinicians need accurate measurements, fast turnaround, and a partner who handles the insurance paperwork. We do both.

For parents

Your child is in good hands.

Our paediatric fitting room is set up specifically for children. Julius is there to greet them, the measurement process takes 20–30 minutes, and we welcome you to stay in the room throughout. We never rush.

  • What to expect at the fitting — a warm room, a friendly fitter, Julius the toy ready to meet your child, and a 30-minute appointment that includes time to colour and play.
  • Helping your child wear it — the first week is the hardest. We provide a parent guide, donning aids if needed, and a follow-up call at day 7 to check in.
  • Growing up with compression — we schedule a re-measurement every 3 months to catch growth early; re-fitting is included in our service.
  • For school and friends — letters for teachers, suggestions for explaining it to peers, and patches that turn the garment into a talking point.
  • Hot weather, swimming, sleep — practical advice for Gulf summers, swimming-pool routines, and night-time wear is built into every consultation.
For clinicians

Your prescription, our pathway.

Healfit serves vascular surgeons, plastic surgeons, paediatricians, burn-care therapists, and lymphedema therapists across the UAE. We work from your prescription — and return the patient to you for follow-up with outcome notes.

  • Prescription format — CCL (typically 1 or 2 for paediatrics), form (sleeve, glove, vest, leggings), area, laterality, diagnosis. ICD-10 codes appreciated for insurance.
  • Lead time — 3–4 weeks from measurement to fitted garment, shipped directly from Juzo Aichach. Urgent cases prioritised with the manufacturer.
  • In-clinic fitting — a certified Healfit fitter can attend your clinic on a scheduled rota; patients fitted during their existing appointments.
  • Julius materials for your practice — polo shirts with the Julius motif for your team, patient leaflets, and design support for a Julius children's corner in your waiting area.
  • Outcome reports — returned to the clinician on request: fit verification, donning confirmation, parent confidence, follow-up cadence agreed.
