Mölnlycke Mepilex silicone foam dressings

Mepilex dressings by Mölnlycke use Safetac soft silicone, which holds the dressing in place but lifts off without stripping skin or causing pain. They are widely used in aged care, community nursing and wound clinics for skin tears, pressure injuries, leg ulcers and surgical wounds.

Border Flex or Border Flex Lite?

Choose Border Flex for wounds with moderate to heavy fluid. Choose Border Flex Lite for low-fluid wounds, skin tears, very fragile skin or to protect at-risk skin. The Lite is thinner and more conformable.

Sizing

Pick a size where the foam pad covers the wound with at least 1–2cm to spare, so the silicone border sits on healthy skin.

FAQs

Can Mepilex dressings be lifted to check the wound?

Yes. The Safetac silicone can be lifted gently and repositioned, which makes wound checks easier without damaging skin.

How long can a Mepilex Border dressing stay on?

Often several days, depending on exudate and the care plan. Change it when fluid reaches the edge of the pad or as directed.

Are Mepilex dressings used for pressure injury prevention?

Mepilex Border Sacrum and Border Flex are widely used on the sacrum and heels as part of a prevention program, alongside repositioning.

Can I buy Mepilex by the box for an aged care home?

Yes. All sizes are sold by the box, with trade pricing and 30-day accounts for aged care homes.
