Tegaderm Transparent Dressing, 6 x 8 Inch, 10 Count

It works great no complaints

I had surgery and a large mass was removed, and I need to be able to keep it dry as I shower. I don't know how much you can see, but it covers the gauze (not included) and provides a gentle yet waterproof barrier on my skin. It does not irritate my skin at all. This is a very thin, very pliable and somewhat stretchy cover, so if it has to be on a vet curvy surface or fold it will work -as long as it was applied correctly to begin with.When applying, make sure the dressing it is protecting is as thin as possible, skin is very clean, no lotions or dry applications where the adhesive will be. Place it down onto the middle of the dressing and smooth it out going from center to outside, and keep it flat on the skin.Ps- the smaller sizes are wonderful for diabetic sensors .

Fantastic for burns and scrapes. I bought this when a family member got road rash from a bicycle crash. Then I used it for myself when I got a small second degree burn while cooking.You can put a little bit of neosporin on your wound if you want, then cover everything up with some tegaderm. Gauze is not needed. And you can cut this to whatever size and shape you want.You've probably seen this stuff before. It's often used to hold IV lines in place in the hospital. But it is also great for covering wounds and allowing those wounds to hold in their own moisture as they heal.For me, I got a one-square-inch second degree burn (no blister, but raw and raspberry red) on top of my foot when some boiling water splashed on me. With the tegaderm, I have the confidence that my burn is maintaining moisture and healing. Since the tegaderm is clear, I can see that there's no infection developing. And since it's thin and flexible, I'm able to cover everything with a sock. I can even wear a shoe with it, but a 3-mile walk caused the tegaderm to slip out of place, so I had to reapply a new piece of it.Removal is easy. You know how band-aids really get stuck and can hurt like heck to pull off? That's not a problem here. It peels off very easily with no pain, at least in my case. YMMV. But the point is that this comes off *way* easier than a band-aid.Buy this stuff. You won't regret it.

This stuff works great!

Had a pretty deep wound from falling from a moving scooter at 15 MPH. My knee was in rough shape but was almost recovered but I didn’t want to risk infection during a lake swim. Took me a few tries to figure out how to adhere this to my skin. But with a combined use of bandages and this product on top, I was able to enter into a lake and not sustain any water seeping through the layer. But I will say I did have to use multiple layers of this product to achieve that result. Still much better than any “waterproof” band aid you will get at Walgreens. Worth the purchase.

This is the best adhesive bandage I have been able to find. I got a second degree burn on my leg that was much too large for any band-aid. I needed to adhere non-stick pads to my thigh so the burn could stay protected. I tried cloth tape, athletic tape, and pre-wrap and athletic tape, all of which peeled off or scrunched up.I purchased this product at the recommendation of my doctor and was blown away by how well it adheres without sacrificing comfort. I would wear the film with non-stick pads underneath for up to 24 hours consecutively. Through showering, vigorous rock climbing, sleeping, and even wearing pants, the Tegaderm did not peel or fall off once, nor was it ever uncomfortable.The price may seem high, but it's absolutely worth it. When I put on the film I knew I could count on one piece lasting me more than 24 hours, if necessary. I never had to reapply and I could continue moving about normally without worrying about whether my bandaging would stay. This product made my recovery much less of a hassle.After wearing it for two weeks consecutively I did get a very slight rash around the sticky edge, likely just from dry skin and irritation. It was very mild and didn't bother me.Application is easy. All you do is peel the big sheet off the sticky side and press it on. Then you peel the separate edge paper off the top, making sure that the edge is completely sealed against your skin. After that you can peel off the bigger center paper. It really feels like a second skin and I highly recommend it for anyone with a large wound or a wound in a tough-to-cover area.

The best quality of waterproof coverings for wounds. The other brands I tried resulted in blisters from an allergic reaction.

This is by far the best type of bandage to use. Purchasing these sheets gives you so much flexibility to address different size wounds. Wounds heal so much faster when using tegaderm than they do with a band aid or nothing at all.
