Description:
This Dimora Silicone Foam Dressing 4" is a medical-grade wound care solution designed for moderate to high exudating wounds. It combines soft silicone with a multi-layered structure to offer gentle yet secure adhesion while maintaining a moist healing environment.
Key Points
The dressing features five distinct layers that work together to manage wound exudate effectively. It absorbs up to 15 times its weight in fluid, which helps prevent maceration and keeps the wound site dry. The self-adherent design uses medical-grade hypoallergenic silicone that minimizes pain during changes. It’s especially useful for wounds like surgical incisions, pressure ulcers, and post-operative sites.

Benefits
This dressing maintains a balanced moisture level, which supports natural healing processes. The waterproof layer blocks external contaminants while allowing oxygen and water vapor to pass through. The nonwoven layer disperses excess fluid, reducing the risk of skin breakdown. It reduces the frequency of dressing changes, which can be a relief for patients managing chronic wounds.
Usage Recommendations
For best results, apply the dressing directly to clean, dry skin around the wound. Ensure the wound is free of debris and infection before use. Replace every 3 to 7 days depending on exudate levels. Avoid use on open burns unless advised by a healthcare professional. The dressing is ideal for patients who require frequent wound care without daily changes.
💡 The foam core enhances fluid absorption, making it more effective than standard gauze bandages.
🔹 The breathable film prevents skin irritation while maintaining a protective barrier.
⚠️ Not recommended for use on deep burns or wounds with active infection.
