The silver cell alginate dressing has no covering to speak of, It comes in a sealed packet and looks a little like steel wool when its removed from the packet. Just prepare the wound and put the silver cell directly on the wound.

Cut alginate to size and apply to cleaned wound. Apply as is. There is no covering other than the packing.

Is this product better than the Honey and algae? It has worked well, but a little slow now. Does anyone know? I have diabetic ulcers on my feet.

I use silver cell on my husbands Foot wounds / ulcers to aide healing and prevent infection. It's expensive but what's recommended by our wound center. I leave a square cut to size in place for 3 days. Remove with spray of water if stuck to skin and reapply another piece until healed. He lost one leg to infection and this foot is healing with this product. Slow heal but works.
