Medical tape works by using a skin-safe adhesive to hold dressings, bandages, or medical devices securely in place. The adhesive allows the tape to stick to the skin while supporting stability and protection.
Different types of medical tape use varying adhesive strengths and materials to balance secure hold with comfort and ease of removal. This allows the tape to stay in place during normal movement while minimizing irritation to the skin.
