Allevyn Gentle Border Sacrum, 16.8 x 17.1 Centimeter

Smith Allevyn Gentle Border Sacrum Dressing

The Smith Allevyn Gentle Border Sacrum is a foam wound dressing shaped specifically for the sacral area, making it ideal for people managing pressure injuries, surgical wounds, or at-risk skin over the lower back and tailbone. Its anatomically contoured design and gentle silicone adhesive border help the dressing conform securely to this hard-to-dress region while keeping the surrounding skin comfortable and protected.

This dressing works by absorbing wound exudate into its foam core while helping maintain a moist environment that supports healing. The gentle adhesive border allows the dressing to be applied, removed, and even repositioned easily without losing its stick, which minimizes skin trauma during dressing changes. Because it is showerproof, it offers a reliable barrier that lets users maintain everyday hygiene routines with greater confidence and less disruption.

The Smith Allevyn Gentle Border Sacrum measures 16.8 x 17.1 centimeters and is available in multiple purchase options, including a single dressing, a box of 10, and a case of 60 to suit both individual and higher-volume needs. Many wound care supplies like this are FSA/HSA eligible, so check your plan for reimbursement. Select your preferred quantity from the options below to order.
