Opsite Flexifix Gentle Transparent Silicone Adhesive Film Roll 10cm x 1m by Smith & Nephew
Opsite Flexifix Gentle Transparent Silicone Adhesive Film has a gentle adhesive to hold dressings in place. It is breathable, transparent, has a seven-day wear time, and can be used on patients with fragile or at-risk skin. It removes cleanly, without disrupting fragile skin layers or causing the patient undue pain.
This gentle silicone gel adhesive enables the dressing to be lifted and repositioned without losing adherent properties. The film is transparent, shower and bacteria proof, allowing monitoring of the site under the film without lifting the dressing. The low friction film helps to protect the skin from the formation of pressure injuries.

- Ideal for patients with fragile skin, the gentle silicone adhesive minimizes the risk of damage to the skin.
- Conformable and extensible, ensures a more comfortable experience for the patient.
- Minimizes the risk of pain or discomfort on removal.
- Easy to apply, can be lifted and repositioned without losing adherent properties.
- The transparent film allows regular inspection of the application site without the need for removal
- Shower and bacteria proof, is impermeable to bacteria, protecting the site against extrinsic contamination and allows the patient to shower with the dressing in-situ.
- Ability to cut to required size, allows correct sized film to be used for the required site.
