Frequently asked questions
How long can I keep this dressing on?
The Gentell Dermatell dressing is optimized to be worn for at least three days, which helps minimize disturbance to the wound site and promotes better healing.
Is this dressing comfortable for the sacral area?

Are instructions provided on how to apply it?
Yes, the product packaging includes explicit, step-by-step instructions for both application and removal to ensure the dressing is used correctly and safely.
Is this an adhesive or non-adhesive dressing?
