DuoDERM Hydroactive Sterile Gel for Moist Wound Healing
DuoDERM Hydroactive Sterile Gel by Convatec is a preservative-free hydrogel wound dressing designed to create and maintain a moist wound healing environment for partial- and full-thickness wounds. This sterile hydrocolloid-based gel helps hydrate dry wounds, support autolytic debridement, and assist in the removal of necrotic tissue while promoting natural healing.

How DuoDERM Hydroactive Gel Works
Hydrogel wound dressings help maintain moisture within the wound bed, which is essential for effective wound healing. DuoDERM Hydroactive Gel donates moisture to dry tissue while helping support the body’s natural autolytic debridement process.
This moist wound environment may help:
- Reduce tissue dehydration
- Encourage granulation tissue formation
- Promote softening of necrotic tissue
- Support improved patient comfort during dressing changes
