Abstract
The invention relates to a thin film dressing having a release liner which is able to support the dressing during application. The resilience or stiffness of the release liner is higher than the resilience or stiffness of the dressing so as to enable the control of the dressing during application. The invention further relates to a method of application of the thin film dressing where a minor part of the dressing initially is applied to the skin afterwards the dressing is folded backwards so the release liner faces upwards. Finally, the remaining part of the dressing is applied by pushing the release liner forwards in a rolling motion thereby rolling the dressing onto the skin. This dressing assembly allows the dressing to be applied by using only one hand.
