Thanks to their neutral, non-medicated ointment base, they are ideal for dermatology as well as for patients with sensitive skin or allergies to certain medical substances. The innovative combination of white petroleum jelly, diglycerin esters, and microcrystalline wax prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound, keeps the skin supple, and allows for pain-free dressing changes. At the same time, Grassolind protects the wound environment and supports optimal healing. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSterile, active-ingredient-free paraffin gauze compress\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eImpregnated with white petroleum jelly, diglycerin esters, and microcrystalline wax\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eMaterial: wide-mesh cotton gauze\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSize: 20 x 20 cm\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003ePackage contents: 10 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003ePrevents sticking to the wound\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eSuitable for sensitive skin\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003ePain-free and gentle dressing changes\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eParticularly suitable for exuding, superficial wounds\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003eGeneral wound care\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eTreatment of exuding, superficial wounds\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eDermatological applications\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eFor patients with sensitive skin or allergies\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003eOutpatient and inpatient care\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSummary\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003e Grassolind ointment dressings offer particularly gentle, effective, and safe wound care—ideal for sensitive skin and pain-free dressing changes.
