Frequently asked questions
How long can I leave this dressing on?
These dressings are engineered for durability and offer an extended wear time of up to 7 days, which helps minimize the frequency of changes and reduces trauma to the wound site.
Is it easy to check the wound without removing it?

Are these dressings safe for latex-sensitive individuals?

What is the primary benefit of the film backing?
