Product as described by seller

Having a bandaid this big means you have something that hurts, let’s not add to the pain with removing a giant bandage. this was great for my surgery as well as my husbands. Doesn’t even pull out the hair.

Perfect for open wounds. Bandage seals on all sides and wicks drainage away from skin.

I recently tried the MedVance TM Silicone - Bordered Silicone Adhesive Foam Dressing, and I must say it's one of the best products available in the market, along with its competitor, Medline OptiFoam. These dressings have some remarkable qualities that make them highly effective for wound care, especially for severe pressure sores.One standout feature of these dressings is the softer adhesive border. Unlike other brands, the MedVance TM Silicone dressings can securely grasp and maintain their hold even in folds, wrinkles, and irregular, highly contoured areas of the body. This is particularly important for patients who have wounds in challenging locations, such as the sacral area, as the dressing provides a secure and comfortable barrier, promoting healing and preventing further damage. It also works well with collagen ointments, moisture barrier gel/cream, substrate powders, alginates, and even highly viscous medical honey.The overall performance of the dressings is excellent. The foam pad is of high quality, providing optimal absorption and cushioning for the wound. The silicone adhesive is gentle on the skin and does not cause irritation or discomfort during removal. I found the dressings easy to apply, and they stayed in place even during movement and daily activities.However, one aspect that can be frustrating is the price fluctuations and delayed delivery. At times, it feels like a bait and switch tactic, as the price listed at $14.99 upon purchase suddenly increases sharply to $18.99, and then immediately shipment gets delayed for over nearly two (2) weeks! This inconsistency in pricing and delivery can be quite annoying, especially when you rely on the product for ongoing wound care which could develop into severe infection or even death.Despite the pricing and delivery delay concerns, the MedVance TM Silicone - Bordered Silicone Adhesive Foam Dressings still remains an exceptional product. They are highly effective for severe pressure sores, thanks to their soft adhesive border and superior performance. If you can overlook the occasional price fluctuations and delayed shipments, these dressings are a reliable choice for even the most complex wound care.In summary, the MedVance TM Silicone - Bordered Silicone Adhesive Foam Dressings, along with Medline OptiFoam, are among the best products available for wound care. The softer adhesive border allows them to maintain a secure hold in folds, wrinkles, and irregular areas of the body. However, be cautious of price fluctuations and delayed deliveries, as they can be frustrating especially if you need the adhesives right away. Overall, these dressings are a top-notch option for severe pressure sores and provide excellent wound care support.

Great absorbent padding. Tape that doesn’t rip my skin

Works just fine

I ended up buying two packages of these and they were absolutely perfect and comfortable to have on after surgery. I seemed to have a slight reaction to the bandages they put on me at the hospital and the doctors office. I bought these and alleviated that itchiness. These were very easy to put on and takeoff. I would definitely recommend these. I originally my first package was the 4 inch but on my second purchase I opted for the 3 inch and that was plenty big.
