Delayed Radiation Injury
The lives of many cancer patients have been saved by radiation treatment, but tumor-killing radiation can also damage healthy tissue. When blood vessels are damaged, restricted blood flow can lead to wounds
At R3 Wound Care and Hyperbarics, we specialize in advanced, non-hospital-based treatments to promote healing and recovery for skin necrosis. With state-of-the-art therapies like Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), we provide a comprehensive approach to treating this serious condition effectively.
Skin necrosis occurs when skin cells die due to a lack of oxygen and essential nutrients, often caused by restricted blood flow to the area. It typically starts with discoloration, such as dark, bluish, or purplish tones, and can progress to tissue damage and open wounds if untreated. These wounds are not only painful but can also lead to severe infections and other complications.
Timely medical intervention is critical to prevent the condition from worsening. Treatments like Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) can enhance oxygen delivery to damaged tissues, support cell regeneration, and accelerate healing. Early recognition and prompt care significantly improve recovery outcomes.
Early detection and treatment can significantly improve outcomes for patients with skin necrosis.
One of the most effective treatments for skin necrosis, HBOT involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized environment. This promotes oxygen delivery to the damaged tissues, accelerating healing and reducing infection risks.
At R3 Wound Care and Hyperbarics, we combine innovative technology with compassionate care to deliver exceptional results.
Recovery varies depending on the severity of the condition and the treatments used. Our team will create a personalized plan to optimize healing.
No, HBOT is a non-invasive and painless procedure. Many patients find it relaxing.
We accept most insurance plans and can help verify your coverage for advanced wound care therapies.
If you or a loved one is experiencing skin necrosis, don’t wait. Early treatment can make all the difference.

VENOUS INSUFFICIENCY ULCERS Difficult-to-heal skin ulcers can be caused by faulty valves in veins that increase the pressure in the veins. The pooling of blood and high venous pressure causes
These are extremely serious bacterial infections that develop rapidly and cause the affected tissue (skin, underlying tissues, and muscles) to die (necrosis). A necrotising infection begins when bacteria enter the
