How can Advanced Wound Care Dressings help you?

Living with a wound

Living with a wound—whether from surgery, injury, or a chronic condition—can be challenging. But with the right care and the right dressing, healing becomes faster, more comfortable, and less stressful. Your health care professional will chose the dressing that best suits your wound. They may recommend an advanced wound dressing.

How can Advanced Wound Care Dressings help you?

Advanced wound dressings are specially designed to:

• Support faster healing
• Protect against infection
• Manage wound fluid (called exudate)
• Reduce pain during dressing changes

These dressings use modern materials and technologies to create the ideal environment for your skin to repair itself.

In consultation with your HCP and based on their recommendation, you can use these dressings to help you manage your wound. Your health care provider may suggest Biatain® Silicone as an appropriate dressing to manage wounds.

Why use Biatain® Silicone?

• It is gentle on skin, the soft silicone adhesive is easy to apply and remove. ^1,2
• Stays in place: It conforms* to your wound and stays secure, even in conjunction with compression therapy. ²
• The dressing can be worn for up to 7 days if recommended by your health care provider.
• This product absorbs fluid vertically and locks it away, reducing the risk of maceration and spreading of infection to the wound edges and periwound skin.

How does Biatain® Silicone work?

When Biatain® Silicone touches wound fluid, the foam expands to conform^* the wound’s shape. This close fit:
