Areza Transparent Adhesive Film Dressing, 4" x 4.75”, 50 Packs, Waterproof Showerproof Bandage Protector, Clear Breathable for Wound Care, Tattoo Aftercare, Post-Surgical Protection, Upgraded Design

Bought to protect a wound that caught a lot of friction. Sometimes I was clumsy and had some difficulty getting the dressing placed and I would get frustrated. I blame me for my problems placing the dressing and the sticky ends would stick together, Here again me not the product cause I can't see how it could be made easier. I would recommend giving it a try.

Using these covers keeps transdermal patches in place and helps get you through the summer.They also keep the patch down if you wear a brace or other garment / device that wears on the patch as you live / work.You must shave the area just before applying them - and an alcohol wipe helps too - but this is a small inconvenience.Wearing an over cover seems to suppress hair re-growth for some reason (after a while using them) though I have no idea why.I also seem to suffer less inflammation around the patch edges when I use an over cover - despite that this seems counterintuitive.I suspect they will work for many things as well such as dressings and perhaps abrasions but I have not tried them in this capacity.

Love, love, love this product, however, I hope you never need to use it. I had some minor surgery and was instructed to keep the area dry. When applied, this almost creates a skin like film over the area. It worked so well, I could even shower with it on and no water got inside. I had been provided a few of the "name brand" bandages when I left the hospital and like it so well, I decided to try these as the "name brand" was far more expensive. These worked wonderfully.

Very fast shipping and just as good as the brand name tegaderms.if you try to buy these tegaderms at a local medical supply place you will pay like $4 a piece for Brand name and like $2.75 each for generic(which they are out of the majority of the time). I use these to hold my 75mcg Fentanyl patches otherwise they fall of easily..you can even get in a hot tub without losing your patch. Do not try the smaller size unless your patch is 50mcg or less. Be sure to apply starting in one corner and I use a pencil to roll it on because you do not want to leave any air bubbles.

I have very sensitive skin, But needing larger waterproof clear covering stepped up the search for an adhesive film that met MY needs. This one has. TRULY HYPOALLERGENIC No itching while on, no red welts on skin after use ! Less worry about skin breakdown. Stayed on thru sweating, swimming and showering. I change out every 3 days, these covers last. Have used different brands and types for over 10 years;. although good, some very good and hospital preferred NONE met and exceed like these. Areza have for me .So comfortable I'm not even aware its on my skin.

They don't work as well as the more expensive brand name (3M) Tegaderm, they start to peel at the edges more easily and in rare cases the edges won't stay flat immediately after application. To be fair, once in a while the 3M stuff will do the same thing but not nearly as often. My insurance only covers generic meds and I use transdermal patches. They are very expensive and the generics won't stay on the several days they are supposed to. A nurse suggested the Tegaderm covers and they do work great but are a bit pricely. These work just well enough, I haven't lost a medicaton patch using them and they are cheaper but they are not as good as the Tegaderm

After my first session of tattoo removal and having to try to tape gauze to the areas multiple times a day, which was either impossible or never lasted long, I knew I needed to find something different. I just had my second removal session yesterday and put these on as soon as I got home. The burning sensation I had with the gauze was immediately gone. They stayed put all night and I changed them this morning. They did not stick to or irritate my tattoos. My skin where the adhesive is around the edges got a little irritated, but this happens to me with most medical adhesive. These are fantastic and I am never going back to gauze.Edit 8-1-17: Still have the same box from when I originally purchased these. I had a tattoo removal session in May and these were still working just fine. Today I had my first removal session since then. They no longer go on well and are no longer sticking. They immediately begin to wrinkle, take in air, and then start peeling off. The packaging says they don't expire for another year. Super bummed, but I have to go back to Tegaderm.

This is a life saver. I just had surgery that I can’t have my incisions get wet and these are perfect for showering and dressing wounds. If you have a bulky dressing underneath maybe not, but I only have small gauze overneath. You can layer them as needed also. The adhesive is pretty good, and has not given me a rash which adhesive dressings usually do so if you have sensitive skin might be good for you.
