Overview
Mepilex Border Post-Op is a self-adherent dressing that absorbs blood exudate and minimises the risk for maceration. The waterproof outer layer protects the wound from dirt and bacteria. The dressing has a Safetac® wound contact layer that is a unique adhesive technology. It minimises pain to patients and trauma to wounds and the surrounding skin at dressing removal.
