Description

Mepilex Border Flex by Molnlycke Health Care is an innovative wound dressing designed to enhance healing through its advanced features. This all-in-one, self-adherent foam dressing is ideal for managing exuding wounds, offering exceptional conformability and secure placement even on challenging body contours.

Key Features

• Flex Technology: Allows the dressing to stretch 360°, ensuring it stays in place and moves smoothly with the body. This minimizes detachment and supports undisturbed healing.
• Safetac® Soft Silicone: Minimizes pain and trauma during dressing changes, protecting both the wound and surrounding skin.
• Smart Exudate Management: A five-layer construction that absorbs and traps exudate, maintaining a moist wound environment and preventing infection.
• Exudate Progress Monitor: Equipped with a grid on the backing film for clinicians to track exudate without removing the dressing.
• Waterproof Outer Layer: Protects the wound from external contaminants and allows for showering without compromising the dressing.
