I have been using these for a while. I cut them to fit, rather than use a whole one at once. They work especially well on cuts and scratches in areas like your hands where your skin movement keeps pulling apart the edges of the wound and keeps it from healing.

Because there is no pad like with a regular bandage, the Tegaderm really holds the edges of the wound closed, because the whole area is "glued" to the material. Plus, with no pad, there is nothing to absorb water when you wash or shower, so you don't end up with a soggy pad on your wound.

I find that cuts and scratches especially heal faster. And the clear, thin material of the Tegaderm blends in with my skin and does not show up so much. I do lots of gardening, and have lots of rose bushes, plus a kitty who gets a bit rough when she plays, so I frequently have small cuts and scratches on my hands. Tegaderm is a "must" in my first aid kit.

Note: They come in different sizes, so you can get bigger ones. Some also come with pads, so be sure to get the ones with no pad unless you want something more like a regular "band-aid". If you get the type that comes with a frame, it is easier to apply. You can peel the frame off after you have stuck the dressing to your skin.
