Mölnlycke Mepitel Film is a sterile, transparent silicone film designed to protect fragile and sensitive skin while minimizing the risk of skin breakdown. Featuring Safetac® technology, this gentle adhesive adheres to the surrounding skin rather than the wound, allowing for atraumatic, pain-free removal without damaging delicate tissue.
The thin, breathable, and highly conformable design makes it comfortable to wear on curved or mobile body areas. Mepitel Film can be used alone to protect superficial wounds or as a “landing zone” for securing other dressings or medical devices. It also plays an important role in reducing radiation-induced skin damage, making it especially valuable for patients undergoing radiotherapy.
