Mepitel One Silicone Dressing, 3 x 4 Inch

Molnlycke Mepitel One Silicone Dressing, 3 x 4 Inch

The Molnlycke Mepitel One Silicone Dressing is a gentle, transparent wound contact layer designed for people managing a wide range of wounds, from surgical incisions and skin tears to abrasions, blisters, and fragile or sensitive skin. Featuring the exclusive Safetac silicone adhesive technology on the wound-contact side only, this dressing is engineered to minimize pain and trauma at dressing changes, making it an excellent choice for caregivers and patients who want comfortable, atraumatic wound care.

Mepitel One works by creating a soft, conformable protective layer between the wound and a secondary absorbent dressing. The one-sided Safetac layer allows for easy, single-handed handling and application, and it seals gently around the wound edges to help reduce the risk of maceration. Because it can remain in place for up to 14 days, it enables less frequent dressing changes, promotes undisturbed wound healing, and offers a cost-effective approach to care. When removed, it leaves no residue and does not dry out, so your skin stays protected.

The transparent design lets you and your healthcare provider inspect the wound easily during application and wear without disturbing the dressing, while its flexible construction conforms well to body contours for lasting comfort. This dressing is available in multiple purchasing options, including a Single dressing, a Box of 10, and a Case of 40, so you can order the quantity that fits your needs. Wound care supplies like this are typically FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred option below to add it to your cart.
