Flexible, full contact: Stratamed® dries to form a thin and flexible protective film which remains in constant contact with the damaged skin.
Reduced downtime: Stratamed® reduces downtime by creating an optimal environment for faster wound healing.
Bacteriostatic: Stratamed® protects the compromised skin from microbial invasion and does not promote bacterial growth.
Symptom relief: Stratamed® provides symptomatic relief from itching, burning and discomfort, as well as reduces redness and swelling.
How does Stratamed® work?
Stratamed® dries to form a thin, flexible, protective layer that is gas permeable and waterproof. It hydrates and protects compromised skin areas and open wounds from chemical and microbial invasion.
Epidermal cells are able to move to the surface of the dermis through wound exsudate which collects at the wound dressing interface.
