Mepilex Border is an advanced, all-in-one foam dressing designed to support wound healing while preventing pressure injuries and postoperative blistering. It features a highly absorbent, multi-layer foam core that efficiently manages wound exudate, maintaining a moist healing environment that promotes faster recovery. The dressing uses a soft silicone gel adhesive (Safetac®) that adheres gently to the surrounding skin without sticking aggressively to the wound, reducing pain and trauma during dressing changes. Its showerproof design protects the wound from external moisture, allowing patients to maintain hygiene without compromising wound care. Suitable for a broad range of acute and chronic wounds, including pressure ulcers, skin tears, surgical wounds, and venous leg ulcers, Mepilex Border is versatile and dependable for both clinical and home care.
