How to Use:
1. Cut off an appropriate size
Cut off an appropriate length using a pair of clean, sharp scissors to prevent the shredding of edges and contamination.
2. Remove the first protective foil
Place the dressing on a flat surface and and peel off one half of the protective film with thumb and index finger.
3. Apply and remove the second protective film
Place the dressing centrally on the wound. Make sure that you only touch the plaster on the protective film and the backside. Peel off the remaining protective film.
4. Smooth out and press
Smooth out the dressing so that it adheres evenly. Apply only slight pressure and avoid tension. To increase the adhesive strength, you can warm the dressing between the palms of your hands before applying it.
