HydraLock Super Absorbent Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

Dermarite HydraLock Super Absorbent Dressing, 4 x 4 Inch

The Dermarite HydraLock Super Absorbent Dressing is a high-capacity wound dressing designed for moderate to highly exudating wounds. Built around a super absorbent core, it's ideal for anyone managing draining wounds, pressure injuries, leg ulcers, or post-surgical sites that need reliable fluid control and comfortable protection.

This dressing works by rapidly drawing in and locking away wound exudate, keeping excess fluid off the skin while a nonadherent contact layer prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound bed for pain-free dressing changes. A waterproof backing guards against liquid strike-through so the external surface stays dry, and the design supports moist wound healing to encourage autolytic debridement. By managing excess moisture, it also helps minimize maceration and protect the healthy skin around the wound.

Each dressing measures 4 x 4 inches (10 x 10 cm) with a 7 x 7 cm absorbent pad. It's available in a Single dressing or a Box of 10, and many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred option below to add it to your order.
