When this treatment may help
Cold plasma may be discussed as an addition for selected difficult-to-heal wounds. Assessment of the wound and its cause comes first. Circulation, pressure and associated conditions remain central to care.
How the treatment works
A medical device generates cold atmospheric plasma for local use on the wound surface. This differs from blood plasma or PRP. It belongs within professionally supervised wound management.
What happens at your appointment
The current wound condition is assessed before application. Treatment follows device instructions and is combined with necessary wound care. Further applications depend on findings and documented progress.
What you can expect
A randomized trial in diabetic foot wounds found advantages in wound-area reduction. This does not establish benefit for every wound or device. Individual photographs cannot predict your healing process.
Limitations and possible risks
Cold plasma does not replace treatment of poor circulation or an infection requiring medical care. Application and limitations are device-specific. A marked deterioration needs reassessment rather than simply another application.
Preparing for your appointment
Bring wound reports, previous dressing information and your medication list. Mention allergies and associated conditions. Agree on care between visits and which changes you should report.
Costs and insurance
The practice accepts all public health insurances and offers private treatment. This does not mean every individual service is covered. The scope, possible personal costs and follow-up are discussed before starting.
