What are the benefits of using Melolin?

Melolin supports wound healing by absorbing fluid and minimising trauma during dressing removal. It is gentle on the skin and well-suited to a variety of wound types, offering reliable care for sensitive areas.

How does Melolin work?

Melolin is designed to draw moisture away from the wound through its perforated surface and into the absorbent core. This keeps the site moist but not overly wet, supporting recovery and reducing discomfort when changing dressings.

Is Melolin suitable for sensitive skin?

Melolin is hypoallergenic, making it appropriate for individuals with sensitive or reactive skin. Its design aims to lower the risk of irritation or allergic response.

Can Melolin be cut to fit different wound sizes?

Yes, Melolin can be trimmed to suit the wound area while still maintaining its shape and effectiveness, making it flexible for different applications.

What is the best way to secure Melolin in place?

Melolin can be held in position using medical tape, a retention sheet, or a flexible bandage to ensure it stays in place and continues to protect the wound effectively.

Melolin should typically be changed daily or according to advice from a medical professional, depending on how much fluid the wound is producing and its general condition.
