Mepilex Border Flex Lite is thin foam dressing with an all-in-one design. Mepilex Dressings use Safetac technology to create an optimal healing environment. Mepilex Border Lite Dressings are ideal for low- to moderately exuding acute wounds or chronic wounds. Diabetic wounds or post-operative wounds can benefit from Mepilex Border Flex Lite Dressings. Pain associated with dressing changes is minimized with this Flex Lite Border Dressing. Wound or skin trauma is also minimized. This soft, conformable dressing maintains a moist wound environment, which provides the wound with an optimal healing environment. Safetac® technology seals the wound edges and thus minimizes the risk of maceration. Because Mepilex Border Flex Lite Dressings are thin and flexible, these dressings can easily conform to dress wounds on the feet, toes, hands, and fingers. A film backing on the dressing provides a barrier to viruses and bacteria.
