3M Cavilon Advanced Skin Protectant helps to prevent skin damage and irritation caused by moisture, friction, and other factors. It is commonly used in medical settings, particularly for patients with incontinence or who are bedridden, as well as for individuals with sensitive skin or who are exposed to harsh environmental conditions. The liquid dries rapidly upon application to the skin to form a primary long-lasting waterproof, highly durable film barrier. The film adheres to dry, damp, or wet skin surfaces and remains intact even when exposed to wetness or caustic irritants continuously or recurringly.

Frequently Bought Together


How to use Cavilon Advanced Liquid Dressing?

  1. Cleanse skin before applying. Gently dry areas of intact skin as needed. If areas of erosion (denudement) are present, excess serous or serosanguinous drainage may be blotted with a gauze pad if necessary.
  2. Open the package and grasp the applicator. See Figure 1. Place your thumb at the end of the lever. Aim the sponge end of the applicator downward and firmly depress the lever to break the internal ampule. A snapping or popping noise will be noted as the ampule breaks. It is not necessary to continue to press the lever.
  3. Keep the applicator pointed downward for approximately 10 seconds to allow fluid to flow into the foam sponge; continued pressure on the lever is not required. Note-fluid will not completely saturate the sponge to the edges.
  4. Using an even, sweeping motion (Figure 2), gently wipe the foam sponge across the skin with minimal overlap. Firm pressure and downward pressure on the lever or the applicator are unnecessary and may result in excessive wetness or pooling of fluid. Continue application until the entire area of concern has been covered. The applicator may be used in any direction. Apply the product to all skin that is exposed to stool and urine or irritating body fluid. Allow the area to dry for at least 30 seconds. (Figure 3) If an area is missed, wait until the fluid has dried completely before applying additional product.
  5. If it is applied within a skin fold or other area of skin-to-skin contact, make sure that the skin surfaces are separated to allow the fluid to dry completely (at least 30 seconds) before allowing the skin to return to its normal position.
  6. When used under adhesive tapes, dressings, or devices, allow the product to dry for approximately 1 minute before covering it with adhesive products. Refer to Precaution Statement # 3.
  7. Cleanse the affected area as needed. This is waterproof and is not removed by cleansing.
  8. Reapply two to three times per week. More frequent application may result in the buildup of the product.
  9. The film will wear off the skin and does not require removal. If removal is desired, the film should be removed with an adhesive remover containing hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDS).
  10. Use an adhesive remover containing HMDS to remove an adhesive product that has been placed over the film. This is especially important for patients with fragile skin.
