Versatel One Silicone Wound Contact Layer Dressing, 1 Each

Versatel One silicone wound contact layer dressing is a primary non-adherent silicone contact dressing for wound care. It can be a practical choice for clinicians managing abrasions, chronic wounds, burns, blisters, cuts, lacerations, surgical wounds, and trauma wounds where gentle removal matters. The silicone contact layer adheres gently to skin while helping avoid sticking to moist wound beds, and its channels move exudate vertically into a secondary dressing.
