NPWT
Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is a treatment method that promotes the growth of new tissue.
Negative pressure therapy applies suction to the wound site, continuously removing exudate and increasing blood flow, which promotes rapid tissue regeneration.
When compared to traditional gauze dressing, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) reduces the treatment duration by about one-third and cuts treatment costs by approximately 40%.

Why is negative pressure therapy effective?
Have you heard that negative pressure therapy is difficult for bedsores?
Negative pressure therapy can be challenging depending on the location of the bedsore.
At AMUN Plastic Surgery, our expertise makes negative pressure therapy as applicable as possible.
For bedsore patients who cannot undergo surgery due to overall health conditions, we strive to achieve the fastest possible recovery.

There are situations where negative pressure wound therapy cannot be used.
At AMUN Plastic Surgery, we transition the condition to one that can quickly benefit from negative pressure therapy, allowing its use.
If there is scab, necrotic tissue, or devitalized tissue, negative pressure therapy will not be effective.
How will you apply vacuum and pressure?
In negative pressure therapy, the pressure significantly affects the treatment outcome.
Which of the three methods is the most effective?
Method 1, where constant pressure is applied, is less effective compared to methods 2 and 3, which involve fluctuating the pressure, as the healing time for wounds is shortened with pressure variation.
Therefore, when using negative pressure therapy, it is more effective to choose a method that fluctuates the pressure rather than applying constant pressure.
At AMUN Plastic Surgery, we maximize the effectiveness of negative pressure therapy by incorporating pressure changes during treatment.
