SkinGentle™ Silicone Foam dressing is designed with advanced five-layer technology to absorb moderate to heavy wound fluid, maintaining an optimal moisture balance for effective healing. Its gentle silicone border helps secure the dressing while reducing the risk of trauma to the surrounding skin and minimizing pain during dressing changes.
Key Features:
-
Technology to Support Optimal Healing: The silicone contact layer prevents trauma during dressing changes, while the absorbent foam pad wicks away excess fluid to maintain an ideal wound environment.
-
Prevent Damage: The gentle adhesive border provides a secure, comfortable fit for all-day wear. The foam pad helps protect fragile new tissue and wicks away moisture to prevent skin breakdown.
-
Easy Application: The peel-and-stick design makes for easy application and removal. Each dressing is individually sterilized for safe wound care.
-
Multiuse: Suitable for various open wounds, including moderate to heavy drainage. It can be used for full-thickness wounds, superficial wounds, and other injuries in both adults and children.
