MIST Wounds Healing

Advanced Wound Healing with MIST Therapy

Chronic wounds and non-healing ulcers can be difficult to manage with standard care alone. At our clinic, we use MIST Therapy, a non-invasive, advanced treatment that harnesses low-frequency ultrasound technology to accelerate healing and reduce infection—without direct contact with the wound.

What Is MIST Therapy?

MIST Therapy is a non-contact ultrasound-based treatment that delivers sound pressure waves and a fine saline mist to the wound bed. This gentle, pain-free therapy stimulates healing by:

  • Removing dead or damaged tissue (debridement)
  • Improving circulation to the wound area
  • Reducing bacteria and biofilm that can cause infection
  • Stimulating cellular activity to promote tissue regeneration

This method is especially effective for patients with chronic, non-healing wounds, diabetic ulcers, pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, and infected wounds.

How Does Ultrasound Promote Wound Healing?

Ultrasound promotes healing through a process known as cavitation, which involves the formation and collapse of microscopic gas bubbles. This creates microcurrents in the tissue, resulting in:

  • Gentle mechanical debridement of necrotic or devitalized tissue
  • Enhanced oxygen and nutrient delivery to the wound bed
  • Stimulation of tissue regeneration and new blood vessel formation

Low-intensity ultrasound (LIUS) has also been shown to reduce inflammation and support healing in deep-tissue injuries.

Is MIST Therapy Safe for Open Wounds?

Yes. MIST Therapy is specifically designed for use on open wounds and is effective even on sensitive or infected areas. It’s ideal for:

  • Diabetic foot ulcers
  • Venous and arterial ulcers
  • Post-surgical wounds
  • Pressure injuries (bedsores)
  • Wounds with delayed healing or poor circulation

Patients often feel only a gentle misting sensation, and no direct contact is made with the wound, which is especially helpful for painful or fragile wound sites.

How Does Radiofrequency Help with Wound Healing?

Radiofrequency (RF) ablation is another advanced method for managing chronic wounds. Studies have shown that RF can:

  • Reduce bacterial load in infected wounds
  • Stimulate tissue regeneration
  • Support wound closure by promoting new cell growth

Our providers may integrate multiple technologies—including ultrasound, RF, and topical therapies—to deliver personalized wound care based on your unique needs.

Benefits of MIST Therapy

  • Non-invasive and painless
  • No need for direct contact with the wound
  • Accelerates healing of chronic and complex wounds
  • Reduces inflammation and bacteria
  • Safe for patients with diabetes or circulatory issues
