Advance the healing process
for your patients and your burn care team.

We understand that burn healing can be a slow and costly process. Multiple challenges stand in your way to achieving rapid, high quality healing:

, Burn Wounds

Life-threatening infections.

The longer burns take to heal, the greater the risk of infection. The most common burn-related complications include cellulitis, pneumonia, septicemia and urinary tract infection.1 These infections cause patients additional suffering and can double hospital costs.2

, Burn Wounds

Debilitating trauma.

Burn patients endure trauma so intense and prolonged it can interfere with proper wound care.3

, Burn Wounds

Disfiguring scars.

Burn survivors with scar contractures and visible scarring often experience limited mobility, depression, anxiety and psychosocial difficulties.4

, Burn Wounds

Long hospital stays and extended outpatient treatment.

Burns are one of the most resource-intense of all healthcare conditions. Estimated medical costs total approximately $1.5 billion.5

Now is the time to partner and explore the possibilities for quicker more comfortable debridement, angiogenesis, rapid tissue regeneration and less scar formation.
