ALLEVYN Ag Gentle Border Silver Silicone Foam Dressing — Antimicrobial Protection & Advanced Absorption

The ultimate "all-in-one" solution for infected, exuding wounds on sensitive skin. ALLEVYN Ag Gentle Border combines Smith & Nephew’s triple-action foam technology with a sustained-release silver layer and a soft silicone adhesive. This dressing is specifically designed for wounds that are infected—or at high risk of infection—providing up to 7 days of antimicrobial protection while managing moderate to heavy exudate. The silicone border ensures the dressing stays securely in place but removes gently, making it ideal for patients with "paper-thin" or fragile skin.

✔ Sustained Silver Release — Continuous Antimicrobial Protection    ✔ Silicone Gel Adhesive — Painless Removal & Fragile Skin Friendly    ✔ Triple-Action Foam — Absorbs, Retains, and Transpires Moisture    ✔ Showerproof Barrier — Protects Against Bacteria and Contaminants

Why ALLEVYN Ag Gentle Border is the Professional Choice

Infected wounds are often painful and the surrounding skin (periwound) can become highly sensitized. Standard adhesive dressings can cause further trauma during removal. ALLEVYN Ag Gentle Border solves this with a soft silicone adhesive that "mimics" the skin's natural oils, sticking to dry skin but not the moist wound bed. Inside the dressing, the silver ions go to work immediately, neutralizing a broad spectrum of pathogens while the foam core locks away excess fluid to prevent skin maceration.

• Rapid Silver Action: Effective against broad-spectrum bacteria, including MRSA, VRE, and Pseudomonas, within the dressing.
• 7-Day Wear Time: The silver remains active and the foam remains absorbent for up to a week, reducing the frequency of painful dressing changes.
• Breathable Top Film: The outer layer allows excess moisture to evaporate (transpire) while acting as a waterproof shield against external fluids and bacteria.
• Conformable & Cushioned: The foam layer provides a physical cushion that protects the wound from external pressure and friction.
• Aseptic Application: Designed with a "no-touch" protector for easy, sterile application.

Application & Removal Tips

Cleanse the wound according to your clinical protocol and dry the surrounding skin thoroughly. Remove the backing films and center the ALLEVYN Ag Gentle Border over the wound. Gently press the silicone edges to ensure a secure seal. Removal: Lift one corner and slowly peel the dressing back. The silicone adhesive is designed to release without stripping skin cells or causing "adhesive trauma."
