Allevyn Gentle Border Lite, 10 x 10 Centimeter

Smith Allevyn Gentle Border Lite

The Allevyn Gentle Border Lite is a thin, self-adhesive foam wound dressing designed for low to moderately exuding wounds, including those on fragile and sensitive skin. Its gentle silicone technology makes it an excellent choice for people who need effective wound protection without the trauma that traditional adhesives can cause during removal. Whether you're managing a healing surgical site, a skin tear, a pressure area, or a minor chronic wound, this low-profile dressing delivers reliable coverage and comfort.

This dressing works by maintaining an ideal moist wound environment that supports faster, more comfortable healing. The flexible foam core absorbs excess fluid while conforming to curved and hard-to-dress areas, and the showerproof silicone adhesive keeps it securely in place even when wet. Because the silicone border is gentle on skin, you can reposition the dressing during application without losing adhesion, and remove it later with minimal discomfort. It also forms a protective bacterial barrier to help lower the risk of infection, and each dressing can stay in place for up to one week, meaning fewer changes and less disruption to daily life.

The Allevyn Gentle Border Lite is available in multiple options to fit your needs, including a Single dressing, a Box of 10, and a Case of 60 for those who need to stock up. This thin, discreet dressing is well suited for everyday wear and is often FSA/HSA eligible. Select your preferred quantity from the options below to get started.
