What is 3M Micropore Surgical Tape?
3M Micropore is a general-purpose surgical tape for holding dressings and light tubing in place, gentle enough for fragile, sensitive or elderly skin.
How does it help?
The breathable paper tape lets the skin breathe and comes away gently, so it suits areas that need re-taping often, including damp skin. Tear off the length you need by hand and press it smoothly over the edge of the dressing onto clean, dry skin.
Key benefits
- Gentle on fragile skin
- Breathable
- Tears easily by hand
- Two widths
Who should take care?
Apply to clean, dry skin. Remove slowly, low and parallel to the skin. Stop using it if the skin becomes irritated.
