What wounds are these dressings suitable for?
AeroFilm dressings are effective for post-operative wounds and delicate skin areas, including minor cuts, grazes, and surgical incisions. They are ideal for small to medium-sized wounds that require protection. However, they should not be used on infected wounds without healthcare professional supervision. For severe wounds or burns, always seek medical advice.
How long can I leave the dressing on?
The transparent design allows you to monitor your wound without removing the dressing, enabling longer wear than traditional options. However, the replacement schedule depends on your specific wound type. Your healthcare provider should advise you on when to replace the dressing. Typically, dressings last several days before requiring a change.
Are these dressings suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, these dressings are crafted for sensitive skin. The hypoallergenic SupaBond adhesive minimises irritation, and the non-stick pad reduces trauma during removal. Exercise caution when applying and removing from delicate skin areas. Cease use immediately if you experience redness or discomfort.
Can I shower or swim with these dressings on?
The waterproof AeroFilm barrier safeguards against moisture, allowing you to shower while wearing the dressing. However, prolonged exposure to water may impact adhesion over time. Swimming is not recommended as saltwater and chlorine can compromise the seal. Always consult your healthcare provider regarding water exposure.
