AQUACEL® Extra Dressings

AQUACEL® Extra dressings are a type of wound dressing that has been specifically designed to provide a high level of absorbency and protection for moderate to heavily exuding wounds. These dressings are made using a unique hydrofibre technology that allows them to absorb and retain large amounts of wound exudate while also maintaining a moist wound environment that promotes healing.

Key Benefits

One of the key benefits of AQUACEL® Extra dressings is their ability to conform to the shape of the wound, which helps to reduce the risk of leakage and prevent wound maceration. This is due to the fact that the hydrofibre technology in the dressings transforms into a soft, gel-like substance when it comes into contact with wound exudate, which helps to create a seal around the wound and prevent fluid from escaping.

AQUACEL® Extra dressings are also very easy to use and can be applied quickly and easily without the need for any additional products or accessories. They are available in a range of sizes and shapes to suit different wound types and can be cut to size if necessary.

In addition to their high absorbency and conformability, AQUACEL® Extra dressings are also designed to be gentle on the skin and can be used on even the most sensitive skin types. They are non-adhesive, which means that they won't stick to the wound bed or surrounding skin, making them easy to remove without causing any trauma to the wound.

Overall, AQUACEL® Extra dressings are an effective and convenient solution for managing moderate to heavily exuding wounds. Their advanced hydrofibre technology, ability to conform to the shape of the wound, and gentle yet effective design make them an excellent choice for healthcare professionals and patients alike.

Note: Daylong Direct recommends that you contact a nurse, GP or pharmacist to ensure that the wound care product is appropriate for you.
