To prevent wound infections, spray the Elastoplast Wound Spray from a distance of approximately 10 cm onto the entire wound area. Repeat if necessary, then gently dry the wound and surrounding skin area.

FAQ (8)

  • 1. How often should I change my plaster?

    Usually, it is recommended to change Standard First Aid Dressings daily for to hygienic reasons. Some advanced plasters such as the Fast Healing Plaster that provide moist wound healing conditions are recommended to be left in place for up to two days or more in order not to interrupt the healing process.
  • 2. Is it better to let small wounds dry at the fresh air instead of putting on a plaster?

    It is one of the wound care myths that keeping minor cuts and grazes uncovered and exposing them to air helps them to heal faster. The contrary is true!

    Not sticky enough
    These strips fall off when they become wet. No use on hands.

    Fantastic
    At last a plaster that stays on the finger! Delighted with this product - comfortable, durable and practical

    Great for finger tips but the edges start to fray 30 mins after application and you end up looking like some old disheveled mummy in tattered rags. Don’t always stick well either.
