The perforated design lets exudate pass through to a secondary absorbent dressing. And you can leave it place, delivering topical treatments with ease. The dressing integrity reduces the need for frequent primary dressing changes and allows secondary dressing changes without disturbing healing.

Radiat Oncol Investig 2(6): 277-282 The open structure of Mepitel ® One allows, where clinically indicated, topical ointments to pass through onto the wound. When used after facial resurfacing, avoid placing pressure upon the dressing. Lift and reposition the dressing at least every second day.

Mepitel used after facial resurfacing: avoid placing pressure upon the dressing, lift and reposition the dressing at least every second day. Further clinical studies and research are required to establish the safety and efficacy of several types of latest wound dressing methods. Analyzing novel materials for modern wound dressings with positive outcomes exhibited via numerous tests has resulted in innovation in enhancing the dressing materials available in the market. The recent trend in developing ideal dressing products has several advantages. It has various health benefits, including increased antibacterial activities, environmental benefits, high biological compatibility, eco-friendly, and ease of handling, especially with natural polymers. New materials have been designed to respond to the various situations and stages of wound healing. Mepitel One has an open mesh structure that allows exudate to pass through into a secondary absorbent dressing and enables the delivery of topical treatments. Mepitel One allows secondary dressings to be changed without disturbing the wound bed.
