With Safetac® Technology, Absorbent Pad, Sterile, Waterproof and Moisture-Proof Film Backing
Mepilex® Lite is a thin and highly conformable foam dressing that absorbs exudates and maintains a moist wound environment. The Safetac® layer seals around the wound edges preventing exudates from leaking onto the surrounding skin, thus minimizing the risk for maceration.
