This keeps the exudate away from the wound edge, reduces the risk of maceration and supports wound healing. The dressing can be changed quickly and easily in one piece, which promotes atraumatic dressing changes and supports wound healing. The primary dressing can be cut and folded and can also be used as a wound filler. It completely lines the wound bed without sticking.

The dressing is easy to apply when wet as it can be removed in one piece. Notes: - When dry, Suprasorb Liquacel can be easily cut to the size of the wound.
