A New Method To Accelerate Tissue and Wound Healing Rates and Reduce Swelling and Scar Formation

Detailed Technology Description

UC San Diego inventors have come up with a novel approach to accelerate wound healing using a non-traditional pathway for treatment. At skin closure sites, the invention—compared to an untreated controls—produces reduced redness, swelling, exudates amount, tissue indurations, and scab formation around the incision site.   The invention is based on direct observations in rodent experiments involving skin wound closures. The exact rates of wound healing achieved by this method, as compared to control or other treatments, will be determined in experiments that are planned in the near future. Some preliminary unpublished results are available
