AQUACEL Foam Pro
BETWEEN THE LAYERS
Excess wound fluid causes skin maceration and wound breakdown.
Unlike other foam dressings, the Hydrofiber® core in AQUACEL® Foam Pro absorbs, retains and locks away excess exudate directly into its fibres, preventing lateral spread and thereby reducing the risk of maceration.
See the difference with AQUACEL® Foam Pro
Layers of absorption
Stays in place for up to 7 days, while absorbing and balancing exudate with Hydrofiber® Technology
1. Protective top layer
Waterproof yet breathable, the top layer helps manage moisture vapour of the exudate, while protecting the wound from external contaminants.1
2, 3, 4. Dressing core
Includes a unique Hydrofiber® Technology layer that gels on contact with exudate. Using vertical wicking, it locks exudate safely away from the wound and peri-wound skin, reducing the risk of lateral spread or maceration.2-5
5. Gentle adhesive silicone layer
Perforated for skin-friendly application and removal.
Ultimate flexibility
1. Exudate managed
Hydrofiber® Technology has been relied on by HCPs for 25 years for its unrivalled absorption and ability to lock exudate away from the wound – even under compression.1-2
2. Deterioration prevented
Unlike traditional foam dressings, the unique vertical gelling action absorbs, retains and locks away harmful components such as bacteria and excess exudate directly into its fibres which prevents lateral spread and thereby reducing the risk of maceration.1-4
3. Flexible & conformable
AQUACEL® Foam Pro’s secure silicone adhesive wound contact layer lets you apply to even the most challenging areas of a patient’s body.
Daily confidence
Up to 7 days wear-time
For consistent protection from leaks, with minimal dressing changes required.
Less trauma
AQUACEL® Foam Pro’s contact layer is truly gentle and skin-friendly.1 Which means minimal pain and trauma upon removal – even to those with sensitive or fragile skin.2
Stays put for peace of mind
Our unique perforated gentle silicone adhesive has been designed to stay in place – without rucking to clothes or material – even on hard-to-dress areas. It’s also water and shower-proof.1
