Questions & Answers

There's a gentle border and a classic version available in Allevyn for 4 x 4. In what ways are the two different?

There is a slight tacky texture to the gentle border so that it can be applied in sensitive or delicate areas of the body without being irritating. The cream is also gentle enough to use on a baby's

Does the pad itself have a specific size or measurement?

The pads that I bought for my mom work very well and are approximately 7 feet in size. The dimensions are 5 x 7 cm. It is 5 cm x 5 cm or 3 inches x 3 inches.

32 dollars is the price for 1 box of ten. For a pack of 4, the piece is 94, and for a pack of 2, Can I get a case of 10 boxes of the 2 pack?

Since I can only afford one pack at a time, I may use one pack at a time

If I see one pack in the box, does it mean there are 10 or just one?

In the past, it cost about $34 per box (pack) when I bought it.

I prefer Allevyn life to them both due to my needs, but they both work
4/5

The Allevyn Life, as well as the Allevyn Gentle versions have both worked well for me. Each of them is 4 inches wide by 4 inches high. In both cases, depending on what you need, you can benefit from them. I'm happy with both of them as they both seem to hold in place well and work well. In wounds that are likely to drain a lot, both products have good absorbancy properties. These 2 approaches are different in this way. With the Allevyn Life version, the pad is smaller in diameter in the center, but it is also thicker and more cushioned for more comfort in the pad is smaller, there is a lot more sticky or tape-like surface area, which makes it easier for the pad to adhere and seal properly. Allevyn Gentle bandages have a larger pad, so there's less of a tape surface on the bandage to hold it Even after all these years, the absorbent part still has a cushiony feel to it, and is still absorbent. As far as absorbancy, I think both are about the same, except the Life version is more focused in the center, whereas the Gentle version is more spread out. Each of these bandages is suitable for wounds with some drainage. In the event that I had any complaints, I would likely be concerned about price. It's not really that cheap when you buy them in boxes, as there are over two cents per bandage. The best thing you can do is to get what works for you.

I didn't think it was worth it
3/5

In the past, we had used Alevyn products and were hopeful this would also be a high-quality product. Initially, I bought the package in 3 x 3 and it did not stay Taking this item from the store, I figured it was that we were using a too-small bandage. I also had a bad experience with adhesive. The bandage moved around too much and came.

Are you talking about the same product? Allevyn Gentle Border helped solve that problem in the past
3/5

There was no change in the border. Expiration date is 2022. What do you know about 01? That is not the case with this particular Allevyn Classic! In addition, the expiration date on the latter is 2020.

Provides a good seal and protection to the wound
5/5

I found them to be quite useful. Choosing the right one is important because they protect and seal the wound and can even be worn in the shower. Cleansing the wounds effectively is one of their best qualities. The dressings are easy to put on and remove, and the wounds remain clean. There are different sizes available, depending on how the.

The product was excellent, however, the packaging was poor and the product arrived damaged
4/5

Despite being a great product, the box of 10 arrived crushed because it was wrapped tight in a thin plastic shipping envelope. The sterile dressing envelopes were damaged to some extent. A corrugated carton was used by Amazon Prime for shipping products According to their account, they have been using unpadded plastic envelopes to save money. Usually, this is okay for textiles and clothing, but it is not a good idea for items such as books and precious items.

It is necessary for the company to take better pride in its packages
3/5

Previously, I bought a few boxes of these to send to my mom, but it turned out that one of the boxes looked like the picture below when it got to her. A terrible tape job keeps all the pieces together, despite the fact that they are practically falling apart. Her eagerness to use the item meant she didn't want to spend too much time returning it. Despite the inconvenience, my mom loves these dressings and they're a staple in our house My only complaint is the packaging is not as considerate as it could be. I also found it odd that the 2 boxes I ordered at the same time were sent out separately and arrived on different days, which I really don't understand.
