Product details
Suitable for use on fragile skin and with compression therapy.
3M™ Tegaderm™ Silicone Foam Dressing
The 3M™ Tegaderm™ Silicone Foam Dressing is gentle even on fragile skin and does not cause damage to the wound, periwound or surrounding skin.
This non-bordered dressing can be used with compression therapy and is designed to manage varying levels of exudate, from low to high, and is indicated for use on pressure ulcers/injuries(1), venous leg ulcers, neuropathic ulcers, arterial ulcers, skin tears and surgical wounds.
- Strong and gentle silicone adhesive keeps the dressing in place with minimal disruption to the skin during removal
- Unique multi-layer design absorbs and evaporates moisture while adapting to changing levels of exudate to maintain an optimal wound healing environment
- Fluid management properties of the dressing prevent pooling, which helps minimise backward fluid migration and helps reduce the potential for skin maceration
- Gentle on fragile skin and does not cause damage to the wound, periwound or surrounding skin
