6. Is it better to let small wounds dry in the fresh air instead of putting on a plaster?

It is one of the wound care myths that keeping minor cuts and grazes uncovered and let air to them helps them to heal faster. The contrary is true! Research shows that covered wounds heal more efficiently and have a reduced risk of infection. Elastoplast products provide protection until the wound is completely healed.

7. When should I consult a doctor?

We recommend contacting a medical professional under the following circumstances: If the wound is deep and causing major bleeding If the wound shows signs of infection such as redness, warmth, pain and swelling If there are embedded foreign objects in it In case of animal or human bites If the wound is in the area of the face If there is insufficient tetanus vaccination Always when you have questions or are uncertain.

8. What if my wound gets infected and suppurates?

You should contact a medical professional if you recognize signs of infection. This is not only the occurrence of pus but also swelling, redness, heat, pain, itching or burning. In case of infection the wound will need medical care and special medical treatment.

Elastoplast Ultra Sensitive XL: Gentle, pain-free plaster removal with skin-friendly adhesion for small and larger wounds

NART: 48735-00001-46

Elastoplast Ultra Sensitive XL Dressings

These extra skin-friendly plasters have been designed to minimize trauma and pain during plaster removal, while ensuring reliable adhesion during wear. Thanks to their extremely soft and gentle silicone adhesive, Ultra Sensitive is painless to remove, without disruption of the skin barrier. When removed, it leaves the skin free from residues, no matter how long it has been on the skin.

During wear, the silicone gel layer of Ultra Sensitive creates a perfect bond between the plaster and the uneven surface of the skin. As a result, the plaster sticks securely to the skin, even after being repositioned.
