Leukomed ® : Soft and skin-friendly fleece dressing
A high absorption capacity and special skin compatibility are just two of the many features that qualify Leukomed ® for the professional care of post-operative wounds and accident injuries of all kinds.
The sterile wound dressing offers reliable protection from pathogens and contamination. The cross-elastic polyester fleece is very flexible and supple and is therefore also suitable for use on strongly contoured parts of the body. The absorbent wound pad can absorb low to moderate volumes of exudate. It is made of soft viscose fleece with a polypropylene coating. This prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound and enables a pain-free dressing change that does not impair wound healing.
Thanks to the air and water vapor permeable materials, the risk of maceration is reduced. The rounded corners prevent rolling up and ensure that the sterile dressing is securely fixed. Despite good immediate and permanent adhesion, Leukomed ® can be removed without leaving any adhesive residue on the skin.
Professional wound care in the best hands
The condition of the skin has a major influence on our quality of life. The skin is an organ that is as important as it is fascinating, acting as a sensory interface between the body and the environment and as an important barrier against harmful external influences. Any disruption to the integrity of the skin - whether due to acute or chronic diseases, traumatic injuries or operations - is a physical and emotional burden.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Does Leukomed ® have to be removed before an X-ray examination?
No. Although Leukomed ® is not transparent, the product is still permeable to X-rays during the examination. The wound dressing therefore does not have to be removed for X-ray examinations and MRIs, and no additional dressing change is necessary. Is Leukomed ®
suitable for sensitive skin?
For patients with sensitive skin, we recommend using Leukomed ® skin sensitive. The sterile dressing with absorbent wound pad was specially developed for sensitive baby skin, fragile aging skin or already damaged skin. The gently adhering silicone coating has a high adhesive strength and also enables the dressing to be removed painlessly and without leaving any residue. The plaster can be worn for up to 7 days.
