SKIN GRAFT SUBSTITUTES

Ulcers are open sores often caused by pressure, injury, or underlying conditions like diabetes and vascular disease, and Dr. Levick specializes in advanced wound care management to promote faster healing.

Ulcers are painful open sores that occur when the skin is damaged, leaving deeper tissues exposed and vulnerable to infection.

They can be caused by excess pressure due to ill-fitting shoes, long periods in bed or after an injury that breaks the skin. Ulcers are commonly seen in patients living with diabetes, neuropathy or vascular disease. Open wounds can put patients at increased risk of developing infection in the skin and bone.
