Hydrocolloid Adhesive Thin Dressing Waterproof, 4"x4", Box of 5 | Sterile And Individually Wrapped - Waterproof Skin-Friendly Adhesive Pads - Easy Apply Hydrocolloid Bandage - Wound Care

I believe these bandages speed the healing process. Whenever I take one off of a deep healing cut, still filling in, I notice a significant difference [compared to trying to leave off a bandage for a couple of days]. This keeps the wound from drying out so it feels instantly better once I put it on. It keeps the dirt out and is clear enough so you see what is going on [if infection is starting]. On the contrary [to infection]....it seems, if you do have anything getting started on a cut, put one of these in place for several days and it seems to draw out whatever was brewing. I have had itching & irritation, like an infection may have been starting. Then I would clean and prepare the area with a little A & D ointment and possibly a little antibiotic ointment, if appropriate. I would wait a little before trying to apply the new dressing over that. Since I couldn't find the right size "band aid" type dressings, I just used the large dressings. I would cut one in strips [with scissors I purchased for that purpose only] and utilize those. Works great! I will use this type bandage for any future finger/hand cuts, for sure, or any future deeper cuts/wounds anywhere that will take a while to heal. I know to be careful, however. I used a thicker type that caused a skin reaction, so they are not all the same! Ones great for heels might be best for limiting to heels.

Love these bandages. These are more absorbent, making them a better option for a wound that is wet still instead of a burn or blister. Stayed on better than any other bandage I have ever used.

Great . Just rt size .

Perfect for my surgery wound

Great products. My husband is a amputee and I use them all the time. Thank you for serving a great product.

Very gd

These bandages are less flexible than the Mediplex (i think that's what the brand is, it's what we use in the hospital) they're like a harder plastic on the back but the part that sticks on the skin sticks pretty well and I do like that. They worked well to help the bed sores heal for my grandma, but I will be buying the Mediplex ones in the future, despite the higher price point.

About 12 days ago I had scalding hot soup from the microwave spill all down the front of me, leaving second degree burns over much of the front of my torso. The first day I had about 20 blisters. By the next morning I had over 40 and they were huge and painful. I had meds from the ER, but was looking for pads to wear between me and my clothes for comfort while it healed. I ran across these and thought "why not". I am absolutely AMAZED at the healing. I've used them for about 5 days now and (see photo) it's crazy to see what an improvement it's made in just a few days. I'll tell everyone I know about these things, they are so awesome. Comforting, medicated, and I really think they're going to truly minimize scarring! Wow!

Produit pourri qui ne colle pas bien et n'aborde la peau pour la cicatriser. Ne fait pas le travail attendu. Nul !

Gerne wieder

I can't stress enough what a great value this is for $25. One sheet of these 15cmx15cm hydrocolloid dressings can be cut into 225 typical-sized acne-spot patches, which usually go for $10/120. And there are 5 sheets. While these dressings are thicker than the ones made specifically for acne, they can be cut to size for other wounds like cuts, burns, and rashes; seems to promote healing compared to a normal bandage; and doesn't stick to scabs as a normal bandage do. In fact, the moist environment it creates over the wound prevents a dry, itchy scab from forming, but protects it in place of the scab. Keep in mind that for uses other than acne spot treatment, it is better to leave the patch on for a few days instead of changing it daily. Definitely worth having a pack or two in your first aid kit.

I have used duoderm similar products this one is excellent. This is medical grade performance, knowing what to watch for to change the dressing is the key. The product will bubble up at the wound or turn white...remove the dressing clean the wound dry a bit and replace with a new one. This product DOES NOT STICK TO THE WOUND.

Good dressing.
