Closes wounds!

Sofargen Spray και Gel®

Small wounds that cause the skin to break down (cuts, abrasions, cuts, small wounds) are a potential gateway for germs. That is why they should not be neglected! Sofargen® in Spray and Gel takes care of that!

What is it good for?

Sofargen® spray is a medical device product in powder form, for the treatment of minor skin wounds, especially cuts, abrasions, cuts, superficial wounds and general skin continuity solutions. It contains two main components, kaolin (light kaolin) and silver sulfadiazine. Kaolin, a fine, white powder, covers the injured skin with a protective crust and at the same time, drains and absorbs the exudates. Sulfadiazine silver thanks to its broad antimicrobial activity (Gram +, Gram-, anaerobic) prevents wound infection.

Sofargen can be used from the moment the wound is created until it heals completely. Sofargen® can be used in all stages of wound healing.
