How does Mepilex Heel work?
Mepilex Heel absorbs excess exudate through the porous hydrophobic Safetac layer into the foam, keeping the exudate away from the sensitive peri-wound area. At the same time the foam and the film backing provides a moist environment with minimal risk for the wound to dry out. Due to the Safetac property, Mepilex Heel can be lifted without losing its micro-adherent properties.
