Benefits

Highly absorbent

In-vitro studies and clinical experience, both demonstrate that as healing progresses, Allevyn dressings can stay in place for up to seven days. This capacity results from a combination of properties:

• The perforated wound contact layer allows even viscous exudate to pass into the dressing.
• The hydrocellular core of the dressing absorbs and holds liquid in its microscopic structure.
• The breathable outer surface of the dressing allows excess moisture to evaporate away from the dressing.

The result is the formation of a wound environment, which allows healing to progress without the need for frequent dressing changes.
