Frequently asked questions
Does this product provide a comfortable, sting-free experience?
Yes, the Marathon Skin Barrier is formulated with a ‘no sting’ cyanoacrylate composition, ensuring it is gentle on sensitive skin while maintaining high-performance protection.
Is the barrier effective against moisture and friction?
Absolutely. The formula creates a breathable, durable barrier specifically designed to defend against:
- Bodily fluids (urine, sweat, and wound exudate)
- Friction that often leads to skin maceration
Can this be used on damaged or fragile skin?
Yes, it is indicated for clinical use on intact, fragile, or damaged skin. It is particularly effective for protecting periwound and peristomal areas.
Is the formula breathable for the skin?
Yes, unlike some occlusive barriers, this cyanoacrylate protectant is breathable, allowing the skin to remain healthy while simultaneously shielding it from external contaminants.
Is it suitable for managing wound drainage?
It is an excellent choice for wound care and ostomy management. It creates a protective layer that keeps irritating wound exudate away from the surrounding skin.
How quickly does the protectant dry after application?
The Marathon formula is engineered to be fast-drying, which allows for efficient, easy application in busy clinical or home care settings.
Is this applicator sterile for clinical use?
Yes, each X-Large applicator comes in an individual sterile packet to ensure maximum hygiene and safety for every single-use application.
Are there specific conditions where I should avoid use?
For safety, do not apply this product to:
- Deep, open, bleeding, or chronic wounds
- Second or third-degree burns
- Infected areas
- Individuals with known sensitivities to cyanoacrylates or formaldehyde.
Is this product considered professional-grade quality?
Yes, this is a professional-grade medical device. Please note that federal law in the USA restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician or licensed healthcare professional.
Is the X-Large size appropriate for larger areas?
The X-Large size provides a larger coverage area per packet, making it ideal for covering extensive periwound or peristomal regions where a consistent, durable barrier is required.
