Overview
AQUACEL Foam Adhesive Dressing 12.5 x 12.5 cm is a multilayer bordered foam dressing that combines an absorbent foam pad with Hydrofiber technology and a gentle silicone adhesive. It is designed to manage exudate, maintain a balanced moist environment, and help protect the peri-wound skin.
The Hydrofiber layer forms a cohesive gel on contact with wound fluid, helping contain exudate, minimize lateral spread, and reduce the risk of leakage. The outer film provides a waterproof and bacteria barrier for protection during daily activities and showering.
