The secret is the separate gel + film technology
The gel conforms to the contours of the skin
This creates a secure waterproof seal around the area.
The protective film does not adhere directly to the wound
It only adheres to the gel, protecting the skin without trauma.
The skin remains breathable
Designed to allow moisture vapour and gases to escape while preventing external water from reaching the protected area.
Stays securely in place for several days
Even in showers, baths, pools, and humid conditions.
Trusted in extreme conditions
