Mepilex Border Flex Lite 4 x 5 cm Hospital Dressings for Minor Surgical Incisions, Abrasions and Blisters for up to Multiple Days

These don't cause skin issues from adhesives on aging, diabetic skin. Great adherence to dry skin! Great seals. I've found nothing better

Unfortunately I have had to use a larger size of these bandages multiple times, for both my family members and myself, for various injuries and I could be happier with the outcomes. I was introduced to this product when taking an elderly, diabetic family member to the emergency room with a large skin tear just prior to an international trip to a remote location, a larger version of these bandages saved the day. Sadly, had to use them for another family member who sustained a large and nasty injury just before a trip to the Galapagos: they allowed him to snorkel, hike, shower, etc., and the wound healed quickly and cleanly. Since then, I keep a supply of various sizes on hand at home and take some when we travel. I’ve tried other, similar bandages, but so far these have performed the best.

Wish I had gotten these sooner! They are WAY MORE flexible than Band-Aids, keep the area moisturized, and lock in anything you've put on your skin (ointment, cream, etc.). I used these after a dermatologist had to poke and drain acne on my face. Afterwards, I used a band-aid, but it kept lifting and exposing air, which isn't good for skin healing. I used the Mepilex and immediately saw a difference in how it hugged my skin, no matter how I moved, overnight. No air exposure, absorbed any leakage, and kept the Cerave I used locked in. Order these!

Nice. Too small for what I needed. Only a 3 pack

Easy to apply and they were perfect to cover stitches on hand after carpel tunnel surgery. They can be removed while washing area and reapplied.
