NEW SKIN IN 7 TO 10 DAYS
BYPASSES PAIN AND SCABBING |
If you’re an avid cyclist and you haven’t gotten road rash, odds are that you will. Road rash is the large and sometimes severe abrasion caused by a hard fall on a road or trail. Lots of raw, exposed nerve endings make these scrapes very painful. The large areas of missing skin are vulnerable to infection and slow to heal. Scabs re-open and scars are common. |
|
The Road Rash Repair Kit revolutionizes treatment of road rash with hydrocolloid dressings for moist wound healing. Hydrocolloids are wound dressings that contain gel-forming agents. These agents are combined with elastomers (synthetic rubber) and applied to a carrier, such as polyurethane foam or film, to form an absorbent, self-adhesive, water resistant wafer. For most people, hydrocolloid dressings produce healthy, pink skin in days instead of weeks, reduce risk of infection, and bypass the pain and scabbing stage. Used as directed, they change your road rash experience from misery to a mere nuisance.
The Kit contains everything needed for treatment of one road rash that is less than four inches. (Larger road rash may require additional hydrocolloid dressings over the full course of the wound healing cycle.)
