[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is a large bandaid and it works great. I was surprised how large it was. I hope it would be available in smaller sizes. Maybe that is a way to start the product on the market and then offer other sizes.
Must have in your first aid supplies.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product. This product does just as described. It will stay on for days to protect a wound so there is no continually replacing a bandage to protect the wound. I highly recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While the patch easily goes on the sides roll up with time although the main part of what you cover is well protected. The patch does its job even when showering with its waterproof ability. Upon taking the patch off there is no pain or sticky residue left.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have a large gash above my knee from walking into a glass coffee table. This transparent dressing fits great and covers the whole area. It also stays in place even while showering without getting the wound wet.
Great product for all skin tones!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 3M provided me with a free sample of Nexcare Tegaderm Transparent Dressing for me to evaluate. As a senior citizen I have a tendency to fall no matter how careful I try to be. Luckily for me, I had this product handy and used it to cover my scrapes and allow them to heal. I really liked how easy it was to apply the dressing. It kept my cuts and scrapes protected while showering too. No bandage to pick up off the shower floor. What I like most is that the dressing is transparent and works beautifully on all skin tones.
Great addition to your first aid kit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This would be a great option to cover a large scrape type injury that would be difficult to cover with other first aid products. Being able to leave it on for several days, while still allowing the wound to breathe is a significant advantage to any other option available. While I have not yet had an injury that would require this product, I'm happy to have been given this product by 3M, to try out free of charge. Great addition to a first aid kit
Great for wounds!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Nexcare Tegaderm Transparent Dressing as a free sample from 3M. I was first impressed by the size of the dressing. It’s big enough to cover wounds as well as ports. It’s also very easy to apply and remove. The best thing about it is that it is waterproof. You do not have to worry about the wound getting wet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried this dressing on a recent knee scrape. It went on easily and provided secure, water resisitent protection. It also was pretty easy to remove. I wasn't used to the significant adhesive, but got used to it. Would use again.
Creative product and packaging works very well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bandage works as advertised. The packaging is very creative, you apply the bandage with paper tabs still attached. Then once the bandage is on you peel away the top layer of paper and are left with a completely transparent bandage. I wore one through two showers and two rounds of golf and it stayed on.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think it sticks very well. It protects the wound from water and dirt. I will purchase this product in the future. I hope you will make a smaller one for cuts and scrapes as well. The only dislike I have is it's too big for most injuries unless after some type of surgery.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bandage is for all sorts of wounds, accidents and post surgery. They are waterproof and adhere well even after being wet, yet let the wound breath. They are easily removable and the adhesive doesn't irritate the skin.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a must needed part of the medicine cabinet. This item works so well for large road rash type injuries as well as injuries where you need to ensure dirt stays out of. The application is fairly straight forward and once the tegaderm is on, it’s on! It is completely waterproof and really protects the injury. It allows for quick healing and less scarring. This was received for free in exchange for review.
This product is a keeper!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband lis on blood thinners and frequently his arms will bleed from cat scratches or just hitting is arm on something. After one of these we tried the Nexcare Tegaderm. It was easy to use and covered the complete area. It stayed on during his shower and kept his arm dry.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely LOVE this product! I used these post surgery over my stitches (per doctor's instructions) and I was able to do anything I wanted with this on. I took baths, went in the swimming pool & showered with this on and it never got compromised. It stayed waterproof. It stayed 100% stuck on all the edges without any lifting or peeling or anything. I was super impressed. I left it on 7 days straight (again, per my doctor's instructions) and never had any problems. It's truly the most impressive product of it's kind I've ever used.
Forgot I even had it on!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised with how well this bandage did with it being so thin. (So much so, I forgot I even had it on). I didn't think I would have as much protection as with a regular bandage. What I really like about this bandage was that it was breathable while keeping my wound covered without it being intrusive. I didn't think it would last through a shower, much to my surprise, it not only didn't lose any adhesiveness, it was like it had never been touched by water. These are definitely a new staple in my first aid supplies. Only reason I didn't give it the full 5-stars is because I felt like I was wasting a bandage for my little wound. I would really like to see this type of bandage in multiple sizes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free from 3M. Who doesn't love this stuff? I used it on the bottom of my foot, not recommended, that was the only cut I got while evaluating. I tried using it and wore it with bare feet and flip flops, not a good idea. Whenever I have received this at the doctor's office or hospital is has bee the only thing that doesn't irritate my very sensitive skin. This is the best for sensitive skin!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free in exchange for my honest review. I work at a job that requires workers to wash our hand frequently. We also work with boxes and box cutters that can leave wounds on our hands. Bandages are nice but come off every time we wash our hands. Enter the Nexcare™ Tegaderm™ Transparent Dressing and I call it problem solved! The Nexcare™ Tegaderm™ Transparent Dressing is large but i simply cut it down to fit my need. The Nexcare Tegaderm Transparent Dressing seals around the wound, giving it a secure waterproof seal. No matter how frequently I wash my hands, the wound never gets wet! If you are lookinh for a wound solution, check into the Nexcare Tegaderm Transparent Dressing.
