Overview
Silicone Lite Foam is a thin, soft and discreet hydrophilic foam dressing, designed to maintain a moist environment to assist in the healing process of non to low exuding wounds.
Silicone Lite Foam dressing provides a gentle but secure adhesion to skin with minimal epidermal stripping and pain during removal.
The hydrophilic foam has a flexible, breathable backing film which ensures moisture can be transpired through the top of the dressing and works with the unique ability of the foam to absorb exudate1.
The wound contact side of the dressing has a clear silicone perforated film which aids atraumatic removal and prevents ingress of granulation tissue into the dressing.
Silicone Lite Foam dressing has been designed to ensure effective protection of post-operative surgical wounds.
It is available in two different dressing configurations; border and non-border.
