Wound cleansing is one of the most important steps in the management of wounded skin. It limits bacterial colonization and helps to ensure that the healing process runs smoothly. The prescription of a suitable cleansing product is therefore essential. In addition to protecting against bacterial colonization, a specifically formulated product can act on skin regeneration. For example, a cleanser providing moisturizing benefits or helping to rebalance the cutaneous pH would ensure a better healing process.
However, this step is not always easy for patients. They may be afraid of touching their skin because it can be quite painful. A product texture adapted to damaged skin, comfortable and yet easy to rinse, would limit their fear and consequently improve compliance.
