No, you should not. The absorption capacity of Waterproof XL Fast Healing is much better than traditional plasters, but the speed of the absorption is slower. This means that you would have to change Waterproof XL Fast Healing too quickly. In a heavily bleeding wound, you first have to stop the bleeding, for instance by firmly applying a gauze dressing to the wound. Afterwards you can apply Waterproof XL Fast Healing without needing to change it too often.
