Wound Care Services: Advanced Healing for Complex Wounds
We offer advanced wound care solutions for patients with chronic non-healing wounds and injuries. Our goal is to promote rapid healing and prevent complications through specialized, evidence-based treatments. If you’re struggling with a wound that won’t close, our team of wound healing specialists is here to help.
Conditions We Treat
We specialize in treating a wide range of chronic wounds and complex injuries, including:
- Diabetic Foot Ulcers: Specialized care to manage and heal lower extremity ulcers common in diabetic patients, focusing on offloading and infection control.
- Venous Leg Ulcers (Stasis Ulcers): Comprehensive treatment for wounds caused by poor circulation, often found on the lower legs.
- Surgical Wound Complications: Management of wounds that have failed to heal properly, including complications like dehiscence (popped sutures/incisions).
Our Advanced Wound Healing Techniques
We utilize state-of-the-art methods to restart the natural healing process in chronic wounds. Our approach includes:
- Advanced Cellular and Tissue-Based Therapies.
For wounds that are resistant to conventional treatment, we use advanced cellular and tissue products (CTPs), often referred to as skin substitutes. These innovative biological grafts are applied directly to the wound bed to replace missing tissue, provide a protective matrix, and release vital growth factors. This method is highly effective in stimulating the body’s own restorative process for complex, full-thickness wounds. - Comprehensive Wound Management and Protection
Effective wound care requires maintaining an optimal healing environment. We use specialized wound matrices and antimicrobial dressings to manage drainage, reduce the risk of infection, and keep the wound bed appropriately moist. This ensures protection and supports the successful integration of advanced therapies.
Why Choose Us for Complex Wound Care?
- Multidisciplinary Approach: We look at the whole patient, addressing underlying conditions like diabetes and circulatory issues that affect wound closure.
- Personalized Treatment Plans: Every patient receives a custom plan based on their specific wound type and health status to achieve the best wound healing outcome.
- Focus on Prevention: We provide education on prevention techniques to minimize the risk of recurrence, especially for diabetic foot ulcers.
