3M Hydrofera Blue Bacteriostatic Foam Dressing 4" X 4", Box of 10

I purchased this product when reccomended by my husband's plastic surgeon. Husband had melanoma removed from his left heal then his skin graft got infected and was healing very slowly. After using a few different products his doctor had us start using the hydrofera pads. We started on a Thursday and had to send pictures on Monday to his doctor. The doctor said there was a 50% increase in healing in just that short of time. It was absolutely amazing. If your on the fence because of the price dont be. You can cut the pads in smaller pieces if needed. These are definitely worth the price.

This was recommended to me by a wound doctor and it’s amazing. I used the saline solution to activate it so I didn’t have to worry about infection. I used this to treat a pretty bad dog bite.

Fast and reasonable

Worked very well when used as directed.

My husband is diabetic and had an open wound on his foot that wouldn’t stop bleeding after minor surgery (because he is on blood thinners). Hydrofera Blue was the first layer (right next to the wound) of the dressing the nurses at the wound care clinic applied. They told me to change the dressing every few days. It not only helped with stopping the bleeding, but it also helped to prevent infection due to its antibacterial properties. I will be keeping a supply of this among my wound dressing supplies from now on. It comes as a large dry sheet that you can cut with sterilized scissors to the size needed. It is then wet thoroughly with sterile saline solution, which causes it to expand to a thin, blue foam; then you apply it to a wound before adding gauze and tape. If you have an open wound, you should see a doctor as soon as possible, but this will help with urgently needed wound care or between doctor visits, if used as the doctor directs. It should never be used instead of getting medical care, but only as directed by your doctor.
