This gel helps promote wound healing by stimulating the growth of new skin cells.

Uses

Regen-D is primarily used for the treatment of difficult-to-heal wounds, such as diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, and pressure ulcers. It can also be used for other types of wounds that are slow to heal.
