Leukoplast Cutimed Siltec B Sterile 7.5 × 7.5 cm × 3
Leukoplast Cutimed Siltec B is a high-performance silicone-bordered foam dressing designed to manage moderate to highly exuding wounds while protecting delicate peri-wound skin. The soft silicone adhesive ensures secure placement with atraumatic, pain-free removal, making it ideal for fragile, elderly, or sensitive skin.
