3M Micropore Skintone Medical Tape 12mm — Box of 24 (1533-0)
The 3M Micropore Skintone Medical Tape 12mm (1533-0) offers a blend of clinical performance and aesthetic discretion in a precise, narrow format. Designed for applications where a standard white tape would be too visible, this tan-colored paper tape is ideal for use on the face, neck, or hands. The 12mm width is specifically engineered for intricate securement tasks, making it a preferred choice for pediatric care, cosmetic procedures, and facial wound management where a low-profile look is essential.
Manufactured by 3M, this tape is exceptionally gentle on the skin, making it suitable for patients with fragile or sensitive skin types. Its porous, non-woven construction is highly breathable, allowing moisture to escape and air to circulate to maintain skin integrity. The hypoallergenic, latex-free adhesive provides a reliable hold while ensuring that removal is painless and minimizes the risk of skin stripping. This bulk pack contains 24 individual rolls, each measuring 12mm wide by 9.1m long, providing a high-volume, professional solution for clinics, dermatology practices, and home care environments.
