Opsite Post-Op Dressing 15.5 x 8.5cm 2 Pack
Opsite Post-Op Dressing 15.5 x 8.5cm 2 Pack is a sterile, waterproof wound dressing designed to protect post-surgical sites, minor cuts, abrasions, and stitches. With a unique combination of a low-adherent absorbent pad and a transparent waterproof film, this dressing provides a barrier against bacteria while allowing the skin to breathe.
The transparent polyurethane film is flexible, conformable, and designed to remain securely in place, reducing the risk of infection while improving patient comfort. The absorbent pad manages wound exudate effectively, keeping the wound environment moist to support faster healing.
Each pack contains two dressings, making it suitable for home first-aid kits or post-operative care.
