The Skin Microbiome’s Role in Healing
Skin naturally has microorganisms co-mingling day in and day out, and the “microbiome” is what we call the microorganisms living in harmony on the skin.
With tissue injury, loss of microbial diversity (or a disrupted skin microbiome) can cause prolonged inflammation which can delay wound healing. Both equine and human research has shown that a balanced microbiome shortens the time it takes for wounds to heal.
Applying wound care products that deter harmful infection-inducing bacteria while protecting the skin’s normal and healthy microorganism populations is a way to improve wound healing outcomes.
