Tegaderm Film

A global leader in wound care, Tegaderm Film (developed by 3M) is the solution of choice used by healthcare professionals, now available for families in Morocco. This innovative dressing acts like a genuine transparent second skin. It is designed to protect superficial wounds, surgical scars (like those from C-sections), or to secure medical devices, all while allowing visual monitoring of the healing process without removing the dressing.

The major advantage of Tegaderm Film lies in its unique technology: it is completely impermeable to water, bacteria, and viruses, while still being air-permeable. This means the skin can breathe, preventing maceration, while you can safely take a shower, perform your ablutions, or even swim. At Wlidaty, we offer this essential medical device to guarantee healthy healing and daily comfort, at an accessible price in dirhams (MAD).

Features and benefits of Tegaderm dressings:

• Total Waterproofing: Allows washing or swimming without wetting the wound, ideal for daily post-operative hygiene.
• Crystal Clear Transparency: Allows monitoring the healing progress or the state of an injection site without peeling off the dressing.
• Breathability: Allows oxygen to pass through and evacuates moisture from the skin, promoting a moist environment conducive to rapid healing.
• Protective Barrier: Blocks external germs, reducing the risk of infection.
• Long-lasting Wear: Can remain in place for several days (up to 7 days depending on the wound condition), which is economical and convenient.

Our tips for painless application and removal:

• Apply the film to perfectly clean, dry skin, free of cream or adhesive residue to ensure perfect adhesion.
• Do not pull on the film during application to avoid creating tension on the skin that could cause redness.
• For removal, do not tear it upwards. Gently stretch the film parallel to the skin ("stretch release"); this breaks the adhesiveness painlessly and without damaging the epidermis.
• Ideal for protecting C-section scars from clothing friction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about Tegaderm Film:

Can Tegaderm be applied directly to an open wound?

Tegaderm Film is designed for superficial dry or low-exudate wounds (those that do not drain much) and wounds in the final stages of healing. For a wound that is bleeding or weeping, an absorbent pad must be used under the film or an integrated pad model (Tegaderm + Pad) should be chosen.

Does it hurt to remove?

No, if the removal technique is respected (stretching the film flat), it peels off very easily without pulling hair or skin, making it suitable even for sensitive skin.

How long can it be kept on?

Depending on the wound condition and medical protocol, Tegaderm can remain in place for up to 7 days. If fluid accumulates under the film or if it peels off, it must be changed.

Can I go swimming with this dressing?

Yes, it is waterproof. It protects the wound from chlorinated or salt water, making it an excellent solution for holidays or pool rehabilitation.
