Elastoplast Second Skin Protection Strips XL 6cm x 7cm 3 Pack

Elastoplast Second Skin Protection Strips XL are advanced wound-care dressings designed to protect larger cuts, blisters, and grazes while promoting fast, comfortable healing. Made with hydrocolloid technology, these strips create a moist healing environment that helps the skin recover naturally, while providing cushioning and flexible protection.

Each strip acts like a “second skin,” shielding the wound from dirt, water, and bacteria while staying securely in place even during movement. The XL size (6 cm × 7 cm) is ideal for covering larger or awkward-to-dress areas such as knees, elbows, or heels. This pack contains 3 large strips, individually sealed for hygiene and convenience.
