Allevyn66800260 Gentle Border Dressings, 10 cm x 10 cm (Pack of 5)

excellent wound covers waterproof

The product is excellent for larger wounds and stays in place unlike normal plasters and dressings.

Very good

Speedy delivery

Comfortably and stretchy, also waterproof. The thicker than normal dressing protects against bumps. My local Minor Injuries Unit was using them so I got my own to save me going back to have a wound dressed. The hospital says they can stay on longer than a normal dressing, 5-7 days, but I won’t leave it for as long as 7. I’ll change it at 4 probably.

These plasters are excellent for fragile skin, they are nicely padded, comfortable to use and easy to remove without tearing your skin, the use by dates were very good, 2023 which means you can keep them in your first aid box for future use. Because they are easily removed the adhesion can be a problem, this can easily be solved by covering the plaster with an elastic stocking, but be sure to get the correct size so as not to apply too much pressure, if properly done it works very well. I have used these ever since the nurse at our surgery used them on a particularly nasty skin tear, the healing process can also be aided by using inadine patches which you can also buy from Amazon. Although not the cheapest I would definitely recommend.

This product and the other dressings do what they say on the label. The boarders are indeed gentle and the dressings are easy to apply.Over all a very excellent product.

I already had a pack of these plasters but needed a few more. They are ideal for scalds etc.
