Are these plasters waterproof?

They are described as wash-proof, meaning they resist water during washing and showering. While not fully waterproof for prolonged submersion, they offer excellent protection against moisture.

Can children use these plasters?

Troubleshooting

Plaster not adhering well.

Ensure the skin is clean, dry, and free from oils or lotions. Press firmly around the edges after application. For very oily skin, consider pre-treating the area with an alcohol wipe (ensure it is fully dry before application).

Skin irritation after use.

Remove the plaster immediately. Wash the area gently with soap and water. If irritation persists, consult a healthcare professional. Consider using a different type of plaster if you have sensitive skin.

Plaster feels too stiff or restricts movement.

Try a different size or shape from the assortment. For very flexible areas, a smaller or more specifically shaped plaster might be more suitable. Consider if a fabric plaster of this weight is the best option for that specific location.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Select Size: Choose the appropriate plaster size from the assorted pack to cover the wound completely.
  2. Clean Wound: Ensure the skin around the wound is clean and dry.
  3. Apply Plaster: Remove the protective coverings from the adhesive side of the plaster.
  4. Position and Secure: Place the absorbent pad over the wound and press the adhesive edges firmly onto the skin, ensuring a secure seal.

Compatibility:

  • These plasters are designed for general wound protection.
  • They are latex-free, making them suitable for individuals with latex sensitivities.
  • Avoid using on or around sensitive electronic equipment if the environment is humid or prone to moisture, as the wash-proof nature is due to strong adhesive properties.

  • Hygiene: Each plaster is individually wrapped and sterile. Use immediately after opening.
  • Changing Plasters: Change the plaster daily or if it becomes wet or loose to maintain hygiene and promote healing.
