Mepilex Border Flex Lite (5x12.5 cm) is an advanced, all-in-one thin foam dressing designed for the effective management of non-to-low exuding wounds. Specifically engineered for flexibility, this dressing features unique Flex Technology, which allows it to stretch in across 360 degrees, making it the perfect choice for patients in India who need a reliable solution for wounds on highly mobile areas like fingers, joints, or wrists. It provides an excellent balance of protection and comfort, serving as a sterile barrier against bacteria and viruses while remaining discreet under daily clothing.

At the heart of this dressing is the patented Safetac soft silicone interface, which is clinically proven to minimize pain and skin damage during removal. Unlike traditional adhesive bandages, Mepilex Border Flex Lite does not stick to the moist wound bed but adheres gently to the dry surrounding skin. This makes it ideal for individuals with fragile or sensitive skin who are treating minor surgical wounds, abrasions, or superficial cuts. Whether used in a clinical setting or for home recovery, this water-resistant dressing stays in place longer, supporting a faster and more comfortable healing journey.
