Frequently Asked Questions
When should I choose silk tape over microporous?
Choose silk tape for sensitive skin, elderly patients, and areas where tape is worn for extended periods. Silk tape provides gentler adhesion and more comfortable removal than microporous tape. Choose microporous for general-purpose dressing fixation where stronger adhesion is needed.
Can silk tape be used on facial dressings?
Yes. Silk tape is well suited to facial dressing fixation due to its gentle adhesion and smooth finish. It conforms to facial contours, removes without pulling skin, and leaves minimal residue. Use short strips applied in a star pattern around the dressing for secure but gentle facial fixation.
