MOLNLYCKE Mepilex Border Foam Dressing Provides Optimized Wound Healing

  • MOLNLYCKE Mepilex border is an absorbent foam dressing with an integrated self-adhesive edge designed to be easy to use by medical personnel and patients.
  • With Safetac(r), the dressing is gentle on the skin but does not adhere to wound beds, reducing the risk when dressing changes are made and reducing the risk of causing skin damage when changing.
  • Mepilex Border effectively manages moderate to high exudate levels to create a healthy environment that encourages natural healing. Its integrated design makes dressing applications simple and easy for medical personnel and patients.
