Hypafix skin sensitive is a wide area fixation film for fixing wound dressings and devices. With a silicone adhesive, it is ideal for highly sensitive and fragile skin, and its removal is atraumatic. Atraumatic removal, with less risk of adhesive-associated skin damage and considerably less pain on removal or readjustment. This wide area fixation film is permeable to air and water vapour, thus protecting the skin around the wound, preventing maceration and contributing to the healing process. As it is very flexible, it is comfortable to wear and suitable for moving parts of the body. Reliable fixation of dressings or additional fixation of devices. Gentle on fragile, highly sensitive or compromised skin, including the skin of the elderly, infants, diabetics, broken skin and drug-damaged skin. Made from specific materials to ensure low sensitivity or allergic potential, making it ideal for those who suffer from allergies to traditional adhesives. The surface keeps dirt, water and debris away from the wound area to help prevent infection. Retains adhesive strength even when readjusted multiple times.
