Band Aid

Since Band-Aid Hydro Seal stays on for several days, you can wear them until they start to come off on their own. If you need to remove it before then, carefully loosen one end by stretching it along the same direction of the skin. Never pull your bandage upwards. If there is still some adhesive material on the skin, you may remove it using a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. Gently wipe the cotton swab back and forth over the skin until the adhesive is removed. You may also try to use baby oil to remove the adhesive in a safe manner.

You should change your Band Aid every day to avoid infection. You may need to change it more frequently if the area becomes dirty, or if the bandage becomes loose. It's important to keep your wound clean and dry, so changing the Band Aid as often as needed is recommended to help you heal faster. Band-Aid Hydro Seal bandages last more than one day, however, you can change them daily if you prefer. If you're especially active or if your wound is on a part of the body that bends such as a knee or elbow, you may need to change your Band Aid more frequently.

Band-Aid Hydro Seal bandages provide six benefits in one bandage to help create an optimal wound healing environment. The dual-action seal keeps germs out while helping to keep your body's natural healing power in. These 100% waterproof bandages block out water, and they stay on, even while wet. Cushions provide additional protection from painful blisters and wounds. Within 24 hours, a bubble forms under the bandage to indicate that the healing process has begun. These special bandages stay on for multiple days, even through swimming, showering, and hand washing. They may also help to prevent scabs, which can cause permanent scars.
