Never before has there been such variety in the treatment of oedema: the mediven® 550 sleeve is available in 11 colours. Three attractive design elements make the sleeve even more individual, if desired. There is also the possibility of having sparkling crystals integrated in the forearm or upper arm of the sleeve. This makes mediven® 550 arm your fashionable companion that complements every outfit – compression without compromises. The Clima Fresh and Clima Comfort* technologies ensure it is very comfortable to wear and has high breathability.
