Mepilex Border Flex Lite 7.5cm x 7.5cm (B5)

Description

How Mepilex Lite works
Mepilex Lite is a thin and highly conformable foam dressing that absorbs
exudate and maintains a moist wound environment. The Safetac®
layer seals around the wound edges, preventing the exudate to leak
onto the surrounding skin, thus minimises the risk for maceration. The
Safetac layer ensures atraumatic dressing changes. Mepilex Lite can
be cut to suit various wound shapes and locations.
