Allevyn Life Silicone Foam Dressing, 6 x 6 Inch Quadrilobe

Smith & Nephew Allevyn Life Silicone Foam Dressing, 6 x 6 Inch Quadrilobe

The Allevyn Life Silicone Foam Dressing from Smith & Nephew is a multilayered wound dressing designed for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Its distinctive quadrilobe shape is engineered to fit the curved contours of the body, making it ideal for sacral areas, heels, and other hard-to-dress locations where staying put matters. Built with soft hydrocellular foam and a gentle silicone contact layer, it delivers reliable protection and comfort for patients and caregivers managing wound healing at home or in a clinical setting.

This dressing works by drawing fluid into its highly absorbent core, where both exudate and odor stay locked in for lasting confidence between changes. The foam layers cushion and protect the wound by redistributing pressure, while a built-in masking layer reduces the visibility of strike-through so the dressing looks discreet even as it absorbs. The silicone contact layer adheres gently and lifts away with minimal disturbance to the healing wound and surrounding skin, helping to reduce pain during dressing changes. A convenient change indicator shows you when it's time to switch to a fresh dressing, taking the guesswork out of your routine.

The Allevyn Life Silicone Foam Dressing measures 6 x 6 inches (15.4 x 15.4 cm) in the quadrilobe configuration and is available in multiple purchase options: a single dressing, a box of 10, or a case of 60. Choose the quantity that best fits your care needs. This dressing is often FSA/HSA eligible, so be sure to check your plan. Select your preferred option below to add it to your cart.
