How Does It Work?....

The products efficiency is helped by the unique treatment and application technique. It is sprayed onto the area to be treated with an atomising spray nozzle, which enables you to apply a quick drying 'micro layer' onto the wound directly. This enables rapid drying, efficient transfer of the essential ingredients to the damaged tissue and delays the treatment wash-out effect commonly observed with thick layer application. It also minimises the time that the fish needs to spend out of water under anaesthetic.

Sometimes, but only sometimes, if you are quick and the wound is easily accessible you can treat the fish without anaesthetic if you can dry the wound with the fish swimming in a bowl...

WoundMed also acts as a treatment for bacterial or fungal infections. These are usually present at the heel of a bacterial infection associated with ulcer disease. The product also contains a host of natural ingredients to promote rapid tissue regeneration. All of the raw materials used are of the highest standard and you are guaranteed of a rapid healing on wounds, followed by good re-growth of skin tissue. The application will also minimize the formation of scar tissue on the site of the wound which is great news.

Anyone can apply WoundMed. It takes a little practise and the green hands of any Koi keeper are a sure giveaway that WoundMed has been in action somewhere...

Typically though the fish is anaesthetised in a bath or vat and removed onto a moist working mat. The wound is blotted dry using an absorbent paper pad. BaoBio WoundMed is sprayed onto the infected area and allowed to dry. You can speed this process up by blowing on it.  A second micro-layer of BaoBio WoundMed can be sprayed on and from practical experience is highly recommended. Once the wound is dry to the touch, the fish can be returned to water. Healing will be noticeable within 3 to 5 days. Repeat application every 3 days until a new skin layer has formed on the wound.

BaoBio WoundMed is specifically designed for treatment of infections on the skin. If the fish also has an internal infection, injectable antibiotic treatment may be necessary, while BaoBio WoundMed can be used simultaneously to aid healing of the damaged skin tissue.

Note that WoundMed will NOT cure ulcers! It will topically treat them but ulcer disease is a result on internal bacterial infection - so you may have to inject to save the fish.

However, WoundMed is particularly useful in smaller fish, where the over use of antibiotics could cause severe damage to the kidneys and liver of the fish. BaoBio WoundMed will replace the use of antibiotics, if the wound is detected at an early stage and the infection has not become systemic (internal)!!

NB: This means picking up an infection early! A slight redness is all it takes so whenever you suspect a problem check ALL your fish. If you pick up an ulcer or other problem you MUST CHECK ALL YOUR FISH from tip to tail.
