Minor cuts and scrapes can become contaminated with dirt and germs, which may cause infection and delay healing. That's why BAND-AID Brand recommends this easy-to-follow three-step process to promote better healing:
Thoroughly flush and clean the affected area with mild soap and water or try BAND-AID Brand HURT-FREE Antiseptic Wash* and allow to dry. This wash is formulated to temporarily relieve pain and itchiness while helping to wash away dirt and germs.
(*For adults and children two years and older.)
Apply NEOSPORIN First Aid Antibiotic to the affected area for long-lasting infection protection. NEOSPORIN First Aid Antibiotic and a bandage help heal minor wounds four days faster than a bandage alone and may help minimize the appearance of scars.
(*For adults and children two years and older.)
Cover the affected area with a BAND-AID Brand Adhesive Bandage--and keep it covered until the wound is completely healed. This protects the wound from water, dirt, and germs that can cause infection, thereby helping to promote fast healing.
BAND-AID Brand Adhesive Bandages have long been a staple in a family's first-aid kit as a source of healing, comfort, and protection. And as the brand has expanded over the years, so too has the technology and innovation behind it. BAND-AID Brand has moved from being strictly a bandage to becoming a brand that offers a wide variety of products to meet the diverse needs of today's active families and their lifestyles.
BAND-AID Brand is continuously developing new products to help quickly heal wounds and ease pain.
