What are the benefits of using Melolin?

Melolin is crafted to absorb excess wound fluid, protect from external contaminants, and reduce discomfort during changes. It promotes healing by keeping the wound clean and moist.

How does Melolin work?

The dressing is built with three layers: a non-stick perforated surface, an absorbent middle layer, and a protective backing. This layout lets fluid drain into the pad while preventing the dressing from adhering to the wound.
