Mepilex Lite Soft Silicone Foam Dressing, 15 x 15 Centimeter

Molnlycke Mepilex Lite Soft Silicone Foam Dressing, 15 x 15 cm

The Molnlycke Mepilex Lite is a thin, absorbent soft silicone foam dressing designed for low-to-moderately exuding wounds. It's ideal for individuals managing superficial wounds, skin tears, abrasions, and skin reactions from radiotherapy treatment. At the heart of this dressing is the gentle Safetac layer, which seals the wound margins to help protect fragile skin and reduce the severity of skin reactions while keeping the surrounding area comfortable.

Because the Safetac technology adheres gently to intact skin but not to the moist wound bed, the dressing stays securely in place and lifts away with less pain during dressing changes. Its soft, conformable design molds to the body for a comfortable fit, while the foam helps minimize the risk of maceration by managing excess moisture. The result is a dressing that supports a healthy wound environment and everyday comfort.

This dressing measures 15 x 15 centimeters and can be easily cut to size for versatile placement on awkward or hard-to-dress areas. It's available in multiple purchase options, including a Single, a Box of 5, and a Case of 50, so you can choose the quantity that fits your needs. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred option below to order.
