Best For Wound Healing: Kendall Telfa Dressing

Next on the list, we've got yet another dressing that manages to win our hearts. It's the kendall telfa dressing and it's widely considered as dressing that has the most suitable features. It is easy to deal with no stick pads. They are only minimally absorbent as they are primarily for keeping debri and germs out, and for promotion of wound healing because they minimize adherence (sticking) of the wound to the dressing, causing pain and slowing down the healing process dramatically. It can be used on burns (blisters) and no problems with removing dressing. It will not keep it from sticking, rather decreases sticking.

• Stiff enough to not wrinkle while wrapping the wound
• 3 x8 size makes pads easier to use
• Will stick if wound is seeping but easily removed with a bit of saline
• Wounds are easy to deal with no stick pads

We know from years of feedback from readers, customers and amazon sellers, what most people want in a convenient and appropriate dressing. The telfa superior ouchless dressing is exactly that - it's a simple dressing that hits all the right notes. This adhesive bandage works wonderfully. It's not too much where it tears the skin being on Coumadin but it makes the skin thin and it can tear the skin when removing the regular Bandage. The paper pouch around the dressing is a cinch to open. It's very easy to expose the adhesive on one side, position the dressing accurately, and then expose and stick the adhesive on the other edge of the dressing. The small amount of adhesive allows air to help the bandage breathe to keep the bandage in place when using compression stockings and stays in place which helps.

They absorb any seepage, but do not stick to the wound. They are awesome because they don't stick and are breathable which helps immensely in the healing process.
