DuoDerm Extra Thin Spot Hydrocolloid Dressing, 1½ x 1¾ Inch

ConvaTec DuoDerm Extra Thin Spot Hydrocolloid Dressing, 1½ x 1¾ Inch

The ConvaTec DuoDerm Extra Thin Spot Hydrocolloid Dressing is a small, discreet wound dressing designed for minor wounds, superficial injuries, and areas that need gentle protection and moisture management. Its compact 1½ x 1¾ inch spot shape makes it ideal for small cuts, blisters, shallow abrasions, and hard-to-cover spots, giving individuals and caregivers a simple, reliable option for everyday wound care at home.

This hydrocolloid dressing works by forming a soft gel as it interacts with wound fluid, helping to maintain a moist wound environment that supports the body's natural healing process. The vapor-permeable outer film creates an occlusive barrier that helps keep out water, dirt, and bacteria while allowing the skin to breathe. Because the dressing is extra thin and flexible, it conforms comfortably to the body and stays discreet under clothing, making it easy to wear throughout your daily routine.

This dressing is available as a Single unit or a convenient Box of 20, so you can choose the quantity that fits your needs. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible, so be sure to check your plan. To order, simply select your preferred option below.
