3M Painless & Repositionable Micropore Silicone Removal Plaster ensures reliable dressing fixation while respecting fragile skin. Latex-free, hypoallergenic and repositionable, it reduces pain on removal and facilitates repeated care at home or in the office.
Have you ever felt apprehensive about removing a plaster? Fear that it will pull on the skin, that it will hurt... With 3M's Painless & Repositionable Micropore Silicone Removal Plaster, these worries disappear. This medical plaster uses advanced silicone technology to hold dressings and medical devices in place, while remaining remarkably soft.
It's specially designed for the most fragile skin: your baby's, your grandmother's, or yours if you don't respond well to conventional adhesives. Because some skins deserve special attention, especially when care needs to be repeated several times.
Our silicone adhesive is a real game-changer. It offers excellent skin tolerance and considerably reduces discomfort, redness and those little lesions that sometimes appear. You can use it to secure dressings for small wounds, compresses, probes, drains or tubing, even if you have to change them often.
The big advantage? Painless removal. No need to prepare yourself mentally before removal. The silicone adhesive gently peels off without tearing your skin cells. Result: zero pain, zero stress.
This plaster holds really well in place - that's its job after all - but without aggressing your skin. And if you're not satisfied with the first placement? Don't worry: it's repositionable. You can adjust the placement without losing its adhesive power. Handy when you want to get it right the first time... or the second!
Imagine being able to remove a plaster without wincing. That's exactly what silicone technology enables: gentle removal without pulling on the skin. Particularly useful if you need to change your plasters regularly, or if you're caring for someone with sensitive skin.
Cut the required length by hand. Apply the plaster to clean , dry skin, exerting light pressure to ensure adhesion. Adjust if necessary, thanks to its repositionability. Change the dressing as recommended by your healthcare professional, or according to the condition of the wound.

At the pharmacy, we often see worried patients come in: "Every time I remove my plaster, I get red marks that take hours to go away". It's precisely for them that we recommend this type of silicone plaster. But beyond the product, the removal technique changes everything.
Pharmacist's tip: always remove your plaster very slowly, peeling it off parallel to the skin - imagine sliding a credit card under the adhesive. Above all, never pull upwards, as we tend to do by reflex. This simple difference in angle considerably reduces traction on the epidermis.
If you're caring for an elderly person: their skin is often thinner and tears easily. Gently hold the skin in place with your other hand during removal. This stabilizes the tissue and prevents it from lifting with the adhesive.
For children who move around a lot: take advantage of the repositionable function. First application not perfect? Don't panic, you can adjust without tearing the skin. It's also handy when the child has moved during application (it happens a lot!).
After surgery: if you have to change your bandages every day or two, this plaster really limits the cumulative irritation. There's a clear difference compared with conventional plasters over a week of repeated care.
Good to know: even though this plaster is gentle, always clean the skin with mild soap and water before application. Clean, dry skin ensures better adhesion and prevents maceration under the plaster.
