I’ve had the opportunity to utilize KeraVet Gel on a number of patients and couldn’t be more happy with the results. While this is a wound product, focal disease (such as a hot spot) can be very problematic to the pet and owner. Having an alternative topical option that promotes wound healing and deters licking allows me to minimize the use of Elizabethan collars while effectively speeding up the healing process. Not to mention, this is a tool that I believe owners will want to have on hand when they know it is a season their pets allergies typically flares.

Veterinary medicine is overdue for innovation in skin and surgical wound healing.  KeraVet Gel has the potential to improve wound recovery and the quality of life of pets recovering from skin injury. It’s exciting to be at the forefront of these advances. 

“While veterinary medicine has come a long way in complex wound healing, the focus has been on the medical efficacy not patient quality of life.  A wound healing gel that is designed to ditch e-collars has been a long time coming and it’s finally here!”

For a wound to heal quickly, it’s important not to touch it. Keravet Gel reinforces that axiom by incorporating keratin-based technology with a lick deterrent into one powerful gel. As the wound heals, I know that the keratin peptides are activating keratinocytes and causing them to proliferate throughout the wound. This helps the two main goals for any wound: faster healing with less pain. Keravet Gel achieves both while improving quality of life for pets and their families. 

The wound care space in animal health is extremely underserved, relying on old innovations.  KeraVet Bio impressed me with a truly meaningful solution for wound management, a product that ran the gamut of FDA to be cleared in humans, and now is available to our pets.  This is the kind of care our four-legged family members deserve.
