Advanced Wound Care Services
Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT)
Negative Pressure Wound Therapy, commonly known as Wound VAC therapy, is an advanced wound care treatment that uses controlled suction to promote faster healing. A special foam dressing is placed into the wound and sealed with an adhesive film. The dressing is then connected to a portable vacuum pump that gently removes excess fluid and infectious materials from the wound.

This therapy reduces discomfort, prevents fluid buildup, and speeds up wound healing.
