Clear the Way for Healing

Wound debridement is one of the most important steps in treating chronic or non-healing wounds. By removing damaged or infected tissue, we can reduce the risk of complications and give your body the best chance to regenerate healthy skin. At Wound Care St. Augustine, we perform debridement with precision and care, using advanced methods to make the process as comfortable and effective as possible.

What Is Wound Debridement?

Wound debridement is a targeted process used to remove dead, damaged, or infected tissue from a wound site. This promotes a healthier environment for healing, reduces the risk of infection, and allows treatments to work more effectively.

At Wound Care St. Augustine, our specialists perform debridement using sterile, controlled methods — including sharp debridement and Sanuwave® ultrasonic technology — to ensure both thorough cleaning and patient comfort during the procedure.

A Clean Wound Heals Better

When non-viable tissue is left untreated, it can delay healing and increase the risk of complications. Debridement clears the way for healthy tissue to grow, allowing wounds to close faster and reduce pain, odor, and infection risk.

Sharp Debridement

A precise, hands-on method using sterile tools to remove damaged tissue quickly and effectively.

Ultrasonic Debridement (Sanuwave®)

A non-invasive technique that uses sound waves to break down unhealthy tissue with minimal discomfort.

Clinician-Guided Decision Making

Our wound care experts carefully choose the best method for your wound type, location, and healing stage.

Removes Barriers to Healing Dead or infected tissue can stall progress — debridement helps restart the healing process.
Reduces Risk of Infection A clean wound environment significantly lowers the chances of infection and serious complications.
Supports Advanced Therapies Debridement prepares the wound bed for treatments like hyperbaric oxygen therapy, biologics, or skin grafts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wound Debridement

Wound debridement may sound intimidating — but it’s a safe, routine part of advanced wound care. Here are answers to common questions from our patients in St. Augustine.

Does wound debridement hurt?
We use local anesthetics and gentle techniques to minimize discomfort. Most patients describe the process as tolerable — and worth it for the healing results.
Why is removing dead tissue necessary?
Dead tissue can trap bacteria and prevent your wound from healing. Debridement clears the path for healthy tissue to grow and treatments to work effectively.
How do I know if I need wound debridement?
If your wound is slow to heal, infected, or contains discolored or thick tissue, debridement may be necessary.
Is this treatment covered by insurance?
Yes! Wound debridement is covered by Medicare and most major insurance plans when medically necessary.
