This dressing combines a clear, waterproof outer film with an absorbent pad underneath. The breathable film allows moisture to escape while protecting the wound against water, bacteria, and viruses. The pad absorbs excess fluid and cushions the wound, reducing discomfort and keeping the area clean. Its secure adhesive helps it stay in place for several days without needing frequent changes.
