Aquacel Silicone Adhesive with Border Silicone Foam Dressing, 7 x 8 Inch

ConvaTec Aquacel Silicone Adhesive with Border Silicone Foam Dressing, 7 x 8 Inch

The ConvaTec Aquacel Silicone Foam Dressing with Border is an advanced wound dressing designed for individuals managing moderately to highly exuding wounds, including pressure injuries, leg and foot ulcers, and surgical wounds. Built with ConvaTec's proprietary Hydrofiber technology and a gentle silicone adhesive border, this all-in-one dressing helps create the optimal healing environment while protecting the surrounding skin.

The dressing works by absorbing wound fluid and transforming it into a soft, cohesive gel that maintains a moist wound environment—a key factor in supporting the body's natural healing process. Its vertical wicking action locks exudate away from the wound bed and surrounding skin, helping to reduce the risk of maceration. The soft silicone adhesive holds the dressing securely in place yet lifts away gently, helping to minimize pain both while worn and during dressing changes, while the outer barrier keeps water and bacteria out.

This dressing measures 7 x 8 inches and is available as a Single dressing or a Box of 5—simply choose the option that best fits your needs below. The silicone adhesive is designed to be gentle on fragile and at-risk skin, making it a comfortable choice for extended wear. This product may be FSA/HSA eligible; check with your plan administrator for details.
