Wet wraps for eczema are therapeutic garments that combine moisture-retaining fabrics with specialized treatment protocols to provide intensive relief for inflamed skin. This proven technique helps calm severe eczema flare-ups and intense flares by creating an optimal healing environment that locks in emollient and reduces irritation.
Our collection makes wet wrap therapy accessible and comfortable for managing any type of eczema, from atopic dermatitis to nummular eczema.
Gentle Fabric Technology for Sensitive Skin
Our Remedywear™ wet wraps feature TENCEL and zinc-infused fibers specifically engineered for use with wet wrap therapy with eczema-prone skin. These hypoallergenic materials provide superior breathability while keeping your skin moist for effective wet wrap therapy.
For hand treatment, we recommend pairing our wet wraps with TENCEL or cotton gloves for added protection and comfort. The seamless construction eliminates friction points that could trigger additional irritation on already compromised patches of skin.
Advanced Two-Layer Therapy for Maximum Relief
Our wet wraps are designed to create a protective barrier that enhances absorption of topical medication while providing continuous moisturizing to irritated skin. These products have a two-layer system that works by applying a slightly damp inner layer over your topical steroids or emollient, then covering with a dry layer to lock in moisture and reduce inflammation.
These wet wraps significantly accelerate healing time for severe atopic dermatitis and help interrupt the itch-scratch cycle that perpetuates eczema flare-up episodes.
Versatile Solutions for Every Need
Our wet wraps collection addresses various body areas affected by eczema, offering targeted relief for hands, arms, legs, and torso regions. Each garment serves dual purposes as either wet dressings for intensive wet wrap therapy sessions or comfortable dry dressings for daily or overnight wear and scratch prevention.
Unlike traditional materials such as plastic wrap or food-grade plastic wrap, our specialized garments provide superior comfort and skin compatibility and most importantly, breathability. The TENCEL and zinc fibers offer natural antimicrobial properties that support healing while reducing the risk of secondary infections common with compromised skin barriers.
This innovative approach to wet wrap therapy eliminates the inconvenience and discomfort associated with conventional viscose tubular bandages and makeshift wet bandages.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long should I wear wet wraps during treatment?
Before use, bathe in plain warm water for 20 minutes without soap. Soak your wraps in the warm water as well and then wring them out. Gently towel dry your skin and apply an emollient. Wear the wet wraps and a dry layer of clothing overtop for at least 2 hours, depending on your skin's needs and the severity of flare-ups. For severe adult atopic dermatitis, overnight application often provides maximum benefit.
Can I use my regular moisturizer under the wet wraps?
Yes, our wet wraps are compatible with topical steroids, most emollients, and prescribed topical treatments. Apply your moisturizer or topical medication generously before putting on the damp layer to enhance absorption and therapeutic effectiveness. However, always speak with your dermatologist before using medication with wet wraps as the effects will be greatly amplified.
How do I properly wash and care for wet wrap garments?
Wash in cold water with a mild plant or mineral-based detergent with no bleach or chemical whitening agents. Do not use any fabric softeners, which can reduce the zinc's effectiveness and potentially irritate delicate skin. Avoid dry cleaning the wet wraps to maintain the fabric's therapeutic properties.
What size should I choose for optimal wet wrap therapy results?
Choose your regular clothing size for a comfortable fit that allows proper circulation while maintaining contact with treated areas. We recommend sizes that fit snugly without being restrictive, ensuring the damp layer stays in contact with your skin.
