Molnlycke Mepilex Border Heel Foam Dressing, 8-3/5 x 9 Inch

The Mepilex Border Heel is an all-in-one foam wound dressing shaped specifically to fit the contours of the heel. Designed for caregivers, clinicians, and patients managing heel wounds, pressure injuries, and other exuding wounds in this challenging anatomical area, it combines advanced absorption with gentle Safetac technology to support healing and protect fragile skin.

Featuring a five-layer absorbent foam structure, this dressing effectively absorbs and retains exudate while maintaining a moist wound environment that promotes healing. The unique anatomical design conforms securely around the heel, staying in place during everyday movement and reducing the need for frequent changes. Its Safetac silicone adhesive layer allows for atraumatic removal, minimizing pain and helping preserve the surrounding periwound skin during dressing changes.

The tan foam dressing features a protective film backing and measures 8-3/5 x 9 inches (22 x 23 centimeters). It is available in multiple purchasing options, including a single dressing, a box of 10, and a case of 30, so you can order the quantity that fits your needs. This product may be FSA/HSA eligible.
