Measure
Biafin on Left
Subjects were randomized to apply Biafine® to wounds on the left forearm and polysporin (standard of care) to wounds on the right forearm. Medications were applied three times a day for 4 weeks to the areas that have been treated with liquid nitrogen at the baseline visit. Biafine: Apply to wounds 3 times daily for 4 weeks: ingredients: purified water, liquid paraffin, glycol monostearate, stearic acid, propylene glycol, paraffin wax, squalene, avocado oil, trolamine sodium alginate, cetyl palmitate, methylparaben, sorbic acid, propyl paraben and fragrance. Polysporin: over the counter Polysporin ointment 3 times daily for 4 weeks to wounds
Biafin on Right
Subjects were randomized to apply Biafine® to wounds on the right forearm and polysporin (standard of care) to wounds on the left forearm. Medications were applied three times a day for 4 weeks to the areas that have been treated with liquid nitrogen at the baseline visit. Biafine: Apply to wounds 3 times daily for 4 weeks: ingredients: purified water, liquid paraffin, glycol monostearate, stearic acid, propylene glycol, paraffin wax, squalene, avocado oil, trolamine sodium alginate, cetyl palmitate, methylparaben, sorbic acid, propyl paraben and fragrance.
