The extra thin varihesive dressing is composed of hydrocolloids which, in contact with the exudate from the lesion, form a soft gel, which is an ideal medium for healing. The dressing is ideal for the protection of epithelial tissues due to its flexibility and transparency. As the dressing is self-adherent and very flexible, it can be used as a secondary dressing, when the aim is to maintain the moisture of the lesion.
