Professional Care for Safe and Speedy Healing

Minor wounds—such as cuts, scrapes, abrasions, and small lacerations—may seem harmless but can become infected or heal poorly without proper care. At Yeongjong Central Dermatology Clinic, we provide thorough wound cleaning, professional dressing, and follow-up management to support optimal healing and minimize scarring.

What Are Minor Wounds?

Minor wounds are superficial injuries that typically involve the top layers of the skin. They can result from:

• Accidental cuts from sharp objects
• Friction or abrasions from falls or sports
• Scratches from nails, pets, or rough surfaces
• Post-procedure wounds or cosmetic treatment sites

Although not deep, these wounds still require sterile care to prevent infection and promote proper skin regeneration.

Why Professional Wound Care Matters

Improper wound care can lead to:

• Bacterial infection or delayed healing
• Excessive scabbing or discharge
• Worsening of the wound from home treatments
• Increased risk of hyperpigmentation or scarring

Professional cleaning and dressing ensure that even minor wounds are handled with medical precision.
