Wound VAC Therapy uses controlled negative pressure, or suction, to help support the healing process. A specialized dressing is placed over the wound and connected to a therapy system that gently removes excess fluid while helping maintain a protected wound environment.
This treatment is designed to promote healthy tissue development and support wound healing as part of a comprehensive care plan.
