Advantages of Silicone Contact Layer

Atraumatic & pain-free removal

Soft silicone adheres to the surrounding dry skin but not to the moist wound bed, allowing for gentle, painless removal without damaging new granulation tissue.

Protection of wound bed

Acts as a protective barrier against external contaminants, minimizing the risk of infection.

Reduced maceration risk

The porous structure allows wound fluid (exudate) to pass through to a secondary dressing, preventing it from pooling and irritating the surrounding skin.

Extended wear time

Because they do not need to be changed with every dressing change, they can stay in place for several days to 14 days, reducing disruption to the healing wound.

Increased conformability

The thin, flexible, net-like structure conforms easily to difficult, contoured body areas.

Increased patient comfort & safety

Safe for fragile skin, they leave no residue upon removal and offer high transparency for easy inspection of the wound without removal.

Features of Silicone Contact Layer

Non-Adherent: Doesn't stick to wound tissue; painless and atraumatic during changes.

Exudate Permeable: Lets exudate pass to outer dressings; prevents skin maceration.

Durable & Comfortable: Withstands exudate (lasts days); soft and comfortable for patients.

Highly Conformable: Thin and flexible; fits irregular wound shapes.

Versatile Use, High Compatibility with Treatment Plans: Works for acute/chronic wounds (burns, ulcers, etc.); compatible with topical meds. Compatible with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT), antimicrobial dressings, and other treatments without compromising efficacy, enhancing clinical flexibility.

Lowers Scarring Risk: Non-adherent properties prevent tearing of new tissue, reducing mechanical damage during healing and lowering the risk of scarring.

Application of Silicone Contact Layer

Acute Wounds: Burns, surgical incisions, abrasions, etc.: protects tissue and reduces damage during dressing changes.

Chronic Wounds: Pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers: assists in exudate management and healing.

Special Scenarios: Post-radiation skin damage, recalcitrant wounds (when used with medications), and wound care for children/sensitive patients. Suitable for various surgical incisions (for post-operative use). Can be used in conjunction with negative pressure wound therapy products.

Components of Silicone Contact Layer

Soft Silicone Gel (Adhesive Layer)

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is typically used for the adhesive coating. It is applied either on one side (to adhere to surrounding skin) or on both sides (to anchor the secondary dressing).

Carrier Material (Mesh/Net)

The silicone is applied to a porous, flexible material that maintains the dressing's shape and enables exudate to pass through.

Release Film/Liners

The adhesive sides are protected by removable films (often PE) that are removed before applying the dressing to the wound.

FAQ

Q: How do I apply a silicone contact layer?

A: Clean: Gently clean and dry the wound and surrounding skin.Size: Select the appropriate size, ensuring the dressing covers the wound, but can be cut to fit if necessary.

Q: Do I need a secondary dressing?

A: Yes. Silicone contact layers are primary dressings and are not generally absorbent themselves. They require a secondary, absorbent dressing to take up the fluid that passes through the contact layer.

Q: How often should it be changed?

A: A silicone contact layer can remain on the wound for several days—up to 14 days, depending on the wound type and local policies—while only the secondary absorbent dressing is changed. This protects the healing process.

Q: Are they safe to use with topical medicines?

A: Yes, silicone wound contact layers are generally compatible with topicals and are designed for use with other dressings.

Q: Do they cause allergic reactions?

A: Silicone contact layers are typically non-allergic and conform well to the wound shape, making them suitable for sensitive skin.
