DermaLevin Foam Dressings

When a wound needs cushioning, moisture management, and protection against water and outside contaminants, DermaLevin foam dressings deliver on all three. This collection brings together waterproof, adhesive-bordered foam dressings built for moderate exudate wounds — pressure injuries, venous ulcers, surgical sites, and skin tears where a breathable, absorbent barrier makes the difference between steady healing and repeated setbacks.

Two sizes cover most day-to-day needs. The DermaLevin Waterproof Adhesive Foam Dressing, 4 x 4 in (00280E) suits smaller wounds and awkward-to-dress areas, while the DermaLevin Foam Dressing, 6 x 6 in (00285E) handles larger sites with room for the adhesive border to seat on healthy surrounding skin. Both are tan, square, sterile, and feature an adhesive border that holds the dressing in place without extra taping.

The foam core absorbs and locks away drainage to keep the wound bed at an ideal moisture level, while the waterproof outer film lets patients shower or wash without soaking the dressing — a common question for anyone managing a wound at home. The bordered design also means fewer dressing changes, less skin trauma on removal, and a lower risk of maceration around the wound edges. Because they're individually sterile, they're ready for clinical and home use alike.

Foam dressings like these are typically changed every few days depending on drainage, and the border helps confirm a secure seal at each application. For related options, explore our full range of foam dressings and the broader advanced wound care selection to match the dressing to your protocol.
