Introducing Mepilex® Up:

An innovative foam dressing designed for exuding wounds

We took on the challenge of exudate management for venous leg ulcers (VLUs)

A common thread runs through the array of literature on patients with VLUs. Patients quality of life is significantly impacted by the effects of chronic exudate¹-³. When dressings don’t properly manage exudate, fluid can leak onto and soil patient garments, compression devices, wraps, furniture and healthy skin.

But now things are looking up.

Mepilex® Up is intended for a wide range of acute and hard-to-heal wounds with low to high levels of wound fluid such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure injuries and traumatic wounds.  

Say hello to Mepilex Up.

Mepilex Up is an innovative foam dressing designed to minimise the risk of leakage and prevent its spread to healthy skin.

Revolutionise your approach to venous leg ulcers and discover the benefits of Mepilex Up.
