The Microcyn® Technology
has been used in the United States, Mexico,
Europe, India and China on thousands of patients
for treatment of diabetic
ulcers with excellent results. Diabetic
ulcers are considered a complex wound in which
many factors can influence or delay wound healing.
These factors include, but are not limited
to, vascular health, insulin levels and dietary
controls among others.

Burns are
very challenging due to the high risk of infection
since the skin is no longer a barrier to infection.
As well, skin grafts offer potential for a number
of complications. A graft "takes" or
is successful when new blood vessels and tissue
form in the injured area. Sometimes, skin grafts
do not take because of early complications such
as infection, which is the most common cause
of graft failure.

Varicose
vein ulcers oftentimes present
a devastating lifestyle. The pain is constant
and the odor horrific. These patients live
with both the pain and decaying stench 24
hours a day, seven days a week—many
for the greater part of their lives. The
degree of ulceration is oftentimes exacerbated
by a general neglect of the wound. Compounding
this is the fact that invading bacteria can
grow resistant in reaction to antibiotics
that are used to treat the ulcer. Conventional
antiseptics provide some relief against most
bacteria. However, many antiseptics can actually
induce damage to the healthy tissue surrounding
these ulcers.
