carbonic acid application reduces stubborn wound size by ~85% vs ~60% in controls
In patients with non-healed wounds at 60 days, CO₂ therapy produced a mean wound size reduction of 85% versus 60% in controls, demonstrating superior wound area reduction even in refractory cases.
What this means for you
When a wound isn't closing on its own, the body needs better circulation and oxygen delivery to the tissue. CO₂ applied to the skin triggers a natural response that draws more blood flow to the area — and in this finding, that response was linked to significantly faster wound size reduction compared to standard care.
