A naturally effective dressing from a trusted ENT leader
Optimising the wound-healing environment after sinus surgery is critical to achieving long-term, positive outcomes. It requires a post-surgical solution that minimises adhesions, preserves structural integrity, and addresses patient comfort. An advanced dissolvable biomaterial made with a unique combination of natural ingredients, Chitogel™ is clinically proven to improve surgical outcomes and the patient experience.
Chitogel’s unique ability to support critical wound-healing requirements is a direct result of its three main ingredients, all derived from natural sources.
Three key ingredients enhance wound healing
Prevents adhesions, activates platelets, and delivers hemostatic properties.
Chitosan
Exhibits antibacterial properties, inhibits fibroblast migration, reduces platelet adhesiveness, and promotes re-epithelialisation.
Dextran
Promotes healthy bacterial growth and stabilises the epithelium.
Glycerol
Backed by experience and evidence
Chitogel’s properties are backed by 10+ years of research and clinical evidence, 18+ published studies and papers,and successful patient outcomes of a diverse range of sinus surgeries.
Easily applied, easy on your patients.
Unlike other traditional post-surgical products, which can be associated with mucosal trauma and an unpleasant experience, Chitogel™ is a soft, pliable, and viscous gel. It’s easy to apply with a malleable applicator, stops bleeding in minutes, and comfortably coats the affected area, resulting in a significantly improved patient experience.
Benefits include:
Conforms effortlessly to mucosal surfaces.
Separates tissues in a wide range of sinus anatomies and surgeries.
Remains in place during the critical healing period.
Clears naturally in two weeks with nasal irrigation.
