Aquacel Nonadhesive without Border Foam Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

ConvaTec Aquacel Nonadhesive Without Border Foam Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

The ConvaTec Aquacel Nonadhesive Without Border Foam Dressing is a soft, absorbent foam wound dressing designed for people managing moderately to heavily draining wounds at home or under a clinician's care. Because it has no adhesive border, it's ideal for use over fragile or sensitive skin and for wounds that need a secondary retention layer such as a wrap, tape, or compression bandage. The soft foam pad cushions the wound while helping to manage excess fluid for greater comfort day and night.

This dressing works by drawing in and locking in wound exudate, helping to keep excess moisture away from the wound bed while supporting a healthy, protected healing environment. Its waterproof, bacterial-barrier construction allows evaporation of excess moisture while providing a barrier against viral and bacterial penetration, so you can shower and bathe with greater confidence. The absorbent foam pad enhances comfort and reduces the risk of skin maceration around the wound.

This foam dressing measures 4 x 4 inches and is available as a Single unit or a Box of 10—simply choose your preferred option below. It's designed with a low potential for dermal irritation or allergic contact sensitization, making it a gentle choice for repeated dressing changes. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible; check with your plan administrator to confirm your coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does "nonadhesive without border" mean?
A: It means this foam dressing has no sticky adhesive border, so it won't cling to fragile skin. You'll need a secondary dressing—such as tape, a wrap, or a bandage—to hold it securely in place over the wound.

Q: What kinds of wounds is this dressing suited for?
A: It's designed for moderately to heavily exuding wounds where a soft, absorbent foam pad is needed to manage fluid and cushion the area. Always follow your healthcare provider's guidance for your specific wound.

Q: Can I shower or bathe while wearing it?
A: Yes. The waterproof, bacteria-barrier outer layer allows showering and bathing while helping to block viral and bacterial penetration, and it still lets excess moisture evaporate.

Q: How often should the dressing be changed?
A: Change frequency depends on the amount of wound drainage and your provider's instructions. Replace the dressing when it becomes saturated or as directed.

Q: Should I buy the Single or the Box of 10?
A: Choose a Single to try it or for occasional use, or select the Box of 10 for ongoing wound care and better value. Select your preferred option above before adding to cart.
