How to use

How to use Leukomed t plus skin sensitive
1. Hold the wound dressing at the red handling tape.Then remove the top layer of the first release liner (labelled no. 1).


Hold the red handling tape with the adhesive facing towards the wound or device and apply half of the transparent dressing accurately over the desired location. Now remove the second layer of release liner (also labelled no. 1).


Carefully press the transparent film onto the skin, especially around the edges. Full skin contact ensures that the dressing is waterproof and a bacterial barrier.



2. Now remove the top application film by lifting the edge of the red handling tape (labelled no. 2) and carefully peeling off this top layer.



Remove: to remove the dressing, pull off the film evenly using one of the edges.
