This unique five-layer silicone foam is gentle on skin to help reduce irritation and pain, enabling the dressing to be changed without stripping epidermal cells. It may also be lifted or repositioned without the risk of leakage or loosening, while small perforations in the absorptive pad reduce risks of in-growth. The foam layer of Proximel evenly distributes fluid across the dressing to help prevent maceration of the skin, while providing a waterproof barrier that seals out bacteria and contaminants.
