Abstract
A method is provided for treating a dermatological wound. A first step of the method includes providing an iontophoretic apparatus. The iontophoretic apparatus includes at least one surface for contacting a surface of the dermatological wound, a current source electrically coupled to the apparatus, a suction mechanism operably coupled to the apparatus, and a source of therapeutic molecules. A second step of the method includes placing the at least one surface of the iontophoretic apparatus into contact with at least a portion of the dermatological wound surface. A third step of the method includes activating the current source so that a plurality of therapeutic molecules is delivered to the dermatological wound. A fourth step of the method includes activating the suction mechanism to remove fluid and/or debris from the dermatological wound. The second, third, and fourth steps of the method are repeated until the dermatological wound is sufficiently healed.
