How Flamozil work?
Flamozil is a medical device that indirectly promotes wound healing by regulating the microenvironment of the wound.
What Flamozil contain?
Flamozil is composed of an acidic carbomer stabilised by carnosine, a basic peptide naturally present in the skin. Covering dry wounds such as grazes and surgical wounds with this carbomer has an occlusive effect: it stops the evaporation of moisture and reduces fluid loss through the epidermis.
Carnosine buffers the acidic polymers and also acts as an antioxidant.
The carbomer absorbs excess fluid from moist, exudative wounds.
Flamozil cools and softens contact with plasters and/or bandages and is non-adhesive.
Composition: acidic colloidal carbomer, carnosine, water, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate.
How does Flamozil apply?
Closed wounds:
- clean and disinfect the area to be treated
- apply Flamozil to the wound without touching the wound with the container
- apply a bandage or plaster if necessary
Open wounds:
- clean and disinfect the wound
- carefully pat dry
- apply a thick layer (0.5-0.75 cm) on the wound without touching the wound with the container
- apply a bandage or plaster
- replace gel and or bandage/plaster at least daily
- reduce the application of Flamozil as a scab appears on the wounds
