Any damage or destruction to the skin causes a rupture of the epidermis layer of skin. These wounds may lead to many problems if untreated, such as infection and inflammation, which result in slowing the natural wound healing process.

The majority of wound treatment formulations contain antibiotics or synthetic moieties, which can lead to serious issues, such as drug resistance or allergy.
