Mepitel is applied first session of radiotherapy and usually remains on for the following weeks of treatment . Nursing staff may fix up edges if they lift but generally it’s not removed until,treatment finished . One needs to treat carefully ( don’t get area soaking wet so no swimming, try to,avoid area when showering , don’t get hot amd sweaty )
Great product , reminded me of extra thick gladwrap adhering to skin. I had a lumpectomy and most of,it stuck well to left boob, only ended up,with slight radiation rash on front chest wall NOT a burn .
