Elastoplast Second Skin Protection Plasters

Elastoplast Second Skin Protection Plasters use advanced hydrocolloid technology to speed up the natural healing of everyday cuts, blisters and grazes. Developed by Elastoplast, a brand trusted for over a century in wound care, these ultra-thin plasters keep the wound moist for optimal healing while forming a waterproof barrier that effectively blocks out dirt and bacteria.

How to Use

Clean the wound thoroughly once bleeding has stopped, then apply the plaster. Choose a plaster slightly larger than the wound, apply it to dry skin, and smooth down the edges. Leave in place until the plaster begins to lift naturally or falls off on its own (usually up to 72 hours).
