Description

ALLEVYN THIN FOAM by Smith & Nephew is an advanced wound dressing designed to provide optimal care for wounds with low to moderate exudate. Its highly conformable and flexible nature makes it suitable for various wound types, including blisters, grazes, and minor burns. The semi-permeable, semi-translucent design allows for discreet monitoring of the wound while ensuring a secure fit.

Key Features

• Self-Adhesive: The dressing adheres well to dry skin, making it easy to apply and remove without sticking to the wound surface. This feature enhances comfort and reduces trauma during dressing changes.
• Waterproof and Bacteria Proof: Provides a protective barrier against external contaminants, while remaining permeable to oxygen and water vapour, promoting a healthy wound environment.
• Moist Wound Environment: Helps maintain optimal healing conditions by preventing the wound from drying out.

Versatility and Ease of Use

ALLEVYN THIN FOAM is designed for use on awkward areas of the body, offering flexibility in application. It can be left in place for several days, reducing the need for frequent changes and allowing uninterrupted healing.

Instructions for Use

1. Preparation: Clean the wound and surrounding skin thoroughly.
2. Application: Cut the dressing to size if necessary, and apply the adhesive side to the wound.
3. Removal: To remove, gently lift a corner and pull back on itself.
