Dimora Hydrocolloid Wound Dressing, 20 Packs, 4" X 4" Ultra Thin Large Bandages with Self Adhesive

I use these almost daily over my various transdermal patches that I'm on to ensure that they stay on and label them with the date adhered, the date to be changed, and on some of them the name of the medication. They do a great job securing my patches to the various parts of my body and not allowing them to come off (one of my patches has to stay on for a week). It protects them through showers, swimming, sweating, etc. I do use alcohol pads prior to adhering them to ensure I get the best adhesion possible, but in doing so I have had no issues. They don't irritate my skin. They are easy to remove. They don't leave a bunch of adhesive behind on the skin after removing them (I simply take a couple of alcohol swabs and clean the area after removal or wash it with soap and water in the shower if I'm showering at the time). They can be cut into smaller pieces if you don't need the whole piece. For one of my patches I only need a half, so I can do two times of that patch out of one dressing. I don't know what I would do without these. They are awesome and relatively affordable!

These have worked well for me as a general replacement for bandaids. They are tough, conformal, and sticky, so they work well even in ordinarily really tough areas to use normal bandaids. I'm talking the creases of the fingers, elbows, etc. You do need to give them time, as it can feel like wounds are healing slowly underneath (because they don't really scab with these) but when they finish healing they are usually well-restored with healthy skin and minimal marking.

These r great! I have torn small flaps of skin or cuts. I apply antibiotic ointment, cover it with the bandage and leave on for a few days. These r waterproof, skin color, and work really well. To remove I hold down skin and slowly peel off without bruising. Many times the wound has healed, but depending I may need to reapply another one after I apply aquaphor. This really protects the wound and promotes healing.

These are the evolution of the “Band-Aid” brand ProHeal bandage and ad much as I LOVE those bandages, I will never buy them again as long as I can get these. I love how clear and flexible these bandages are and how they just do not come off like others I have tried. You can see the bandages working as they are clear, and really do blend in with skin. I have had one on for two days now and it shows no signs of moving or peeling off. Also, I cut another one of the bandages into smaller pieces and used it on smaller cuts I have, I fell and cut my legs up in a bunch of spots, and the smaller pieces are holding just as well as the full bandage is holding, which is something I cannot say for other brands as they all have the “bandage” in the center and some kind of adhesive around it, but these are the bandage from edge to edge so you can get them to fit better. And again, with the bandage being clear, you can fit it better as you can see where it is going, unlike other brands. Buy these and follow the instructions and your cuts will heal so much better!

Husband has unique problem with a wound where a bag must stick to his abdomen. Well, if you have a wound that you must use material base meds, or a wound, or a huge ulcer hole, you will not be able to stick the bag to it. You need a SKIN material to go over it and stick to what's left of good areas. Then the bag sticks to the SKIN material. Husband was allergic to some, others wounded abdomen skin to where it bled. Some the bag would not stick to it. Some were to thick for the bag to seal. This was extremely thin, and removes easily with skin adhesive remover, and was about 40% cheaper than buying other RX skins that go all gooey on seeping wounds. Insurance won't cover this but it works. The upside to this is the thinness. Unfortunately, that is the downside as well. This needs to come with instructions. #1 peel 1/2 side off. Do NOT let it touch together as it WILL try to stretch and spring back as you separate the 2nd half and then it is trash. #2 Place the first half down ever so LIGHTLY, VERY SLIGHTLY stretching as you place it so as not to wrinkle or bubble it. Put it on SLOWLY. Do NOT press immediately in case you need to lift gently and slightly re-arrange it. (I had to cut a donut hole and place this over stoma opening) You may need to reach under and hold bandage material down with a finger while you do this. #3 While holding the bandage material down and in place, unless it's now in place with the 1st half, you unpeel the 2nd half (It will STRETCH on it's own no matter what you do). Again, slowly and meticulously adjusting as needed. Some wrinkling and bubbling is probably going to happen but hopefully not enough to matter. #4 This probably needs some skin adhesive remover wipes to remove it to change the bandage.
