Biatain Silicone Lite dressings from Coloplast are thin, ultra-flexible foam dressings with a soft silicone adhesive layer. They use the same 3DFit Technology foam as the standard Biatain Silicone line but in a thinner profile, making them suited for wounds with low to moderate exudate where a bulkier dressing would limit movement or comfort. The silicone adhesive provides a secure fit with minimal pain upon removal.

The thin foam pad sits at skin level and conforms closely to the body, which makes Biatain Silicone Lite less noticeable under clothing and more comfortable for people who need increased mobility during wear. Like the standard-thickness version, the dressing has a semi-permeable top film that is waterproof and bacteria-proof, and features a 3-piece non-touch opening for easy and aseptic application. Each dressing can be worn for up to 7 days depending on wound conditions.

Biatain Silicone Lite is indicated for a wide range of non-to-low exuding chronic and acute wounds such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, non-infected diabetic foot ulcers, donor sites, postoperative wounds, and traumatic wounds including skin abrasions, skin tears, and cuts. It can be used in combination with compression therapy.

Biatain Silicone Lite dressings are available in 5 sizes: 5 x 5cm, 5 x 12.5cm, 7.5 x 7.5cm, 10 x 10cm, and 12.5 x 12.5cm. The 5 x 12.5cm rectangular option is useful for narrow wounds or incision lines. All are not made with natural rubber latex.

For wounds producing moderate to heavy exudate that need greater absorption, the standard-thickness Biatain Silicone Bordered provides more capacity. For wounds where no adhesive border is wanted, Biatain Silicone Non-Border can be cut to fit and used under compression. For infected wounds or wounds at risk of infection, Biatain Silicone Ag provides antimicrobial silver protection. Consult your healthcare provider for guidance on dressing selection.

Frequently Asked Questions ▾
What is the difference between Biatain Silicone Lite and the standard Biatain Silicone?

Biatain Silicone Lite uses the same 3DFit foam technology and silicone adhesive as the standard version, but in a thinner profile. This makes it more flexible and less bulky, which is better for areas where comfort and mobility matter. The trade-off is less absorption capacity, so Lite is designed for wounds with low to moderate exudate rather than heavily exuding wounds.

What sizes are available in Biatain Silicone Lite?

There are 5 sizes available: 5 x 5cm, 5 x 12.5cm, 7.5 x 7.5cm, 10 x 10cm, and 12.5 x 12.5cm. The range includes both square and rectangular formats. The 5 x 12.5cm option works well for narrow or linear wounds. Choose a size that allows the adhesive border to contact intact skin around the wound edges.

Can Biatain Silicone Lite be used under compression therapy?

Yes. According to Coloplast, Biatain Silicone Lite can be used in combination with compression therapy. The thin profile may actually be an advantage under compression wrapping as it adds less bulk beneath the bandage. The 3DFit foam maintains its absorption properties even when compressed.

How long can Biatain Silicone Lite be worn?

These dressings can be worn for up to 7 days depending on the amount of wound exudate. Because the Lite version has less absorption capacity than the standard thickness, wounds with higher exudate levels may require more frequent changes. Change the dressing when exudate reaches the edge of the foam pad, or as directed by your healthcare provider.

Is Biatain Silicone Lite waterproof?

Yes. Biatain Silicone Lite has a semi-permeable top film that is waterproof and bacteria-proof, which allows brief showering without removing the dressing. It is not designed for prolonged submersion such as bathing or swimming. Always follow the instructions for use included with the product.
