MEBO (Moist Exposed Burn Ointment) is a high-precision, regenerative medication specifically engineered to treat burns, wounds, and skin ulcers. Unlike traditional dry dressings, MEBO works through the principle of Moist Environmental Therapy. It is formulated with natural components, primarily Beta-sitosterol (0.25%) in a base of sesame oil and beeswax. It works by creating a physiological barrier that protects nerve endings, reduces pain, and provides the optimal moist environment for "keratinocyte" (skin cell) migration and stem cell regeneration, allowing the skin to heal from the inside out with minimal scarring.

MEBO is a primary clinical choice for both emergency burn care and chronic wound management:
Burns: Treating first, second, and third-degree burns (including scalds, chemical burns, and electrical burns).
Sunburns: Providing rapid cooling and regenerative relief for overexposed skin.
Surgical Wounds: Accelerating the healing of obstetric wounds (like C-section scars) or donor sites in skin grafts.
Chronic Ulcers: Managing diabetic foot ulcers, pressure sores (bedsores), and leg ulcers.
Skin Trauma: Treating abrasions, cracked heels, and diaper rash in infants.
Post-Laser Care: Soothing skin after laser resurfacing or chemical peels.
Sesame Allergy: MEBO has a distinct nutty odor because it is made with Sesame Oil. Do not use if you have a known allergy to sesame or beeswax. Infection Signs: If the wound develops a foul smell, green discharge, or if you develop a fever, consult a doctor immediately; you may require oral antibiotics. Not for Eyes: Avoid contact with the eyes. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Pain Relief: MEBO naturally reduces pain by protecting exposed nerve endings; do not mix it with other topical numbing creams unless directed.
For maximum efficacy, MEBO should be applied frequently to maintain a constant "moist" layer over the injury.
Standard Application:
For Burns: Apply a thin layer (about 1mm thickness) over the affected area every 4 to 6 hours.
Application Tips:
Do Not Scrub: Before reapplying, gently wipe away the liquefied old ointment and wound discharge with a sterile gauze. Do not scrub the wound, as this damages the new skin cells.
Keep it Exposed: Whenever possible, leave the wound uncovered (exposed) to allow the ointment to work. If a dressing is necessary, use a thin layer of MEBO under a non-adherent sterile gauze.
Consistency: Keep the wound "glistening" with ointment at all times. If the area looks dry, it is time for another application.
Early Intervention: For best results with scarring, start applying MEBO as soon as the burn or injury occurs.
Scar Reduction: By maintaining a moist environment, MEBO prevents the formation of hard scabs, which is the leading cause of heavy scarring.
Pain Management: The ointment provides a soothing, cooling effect and protects damaged nerve endings from air and friction.
Natural Debridement: It helps the body naturally liquefy and remove dead (necrotic) tissue without the need for painful surgical scraping.
Q: Why does it smell like "Peanuts" or "Seeds"?
A: That is the natural scent of the high-purity Sesame Oil base. It contains no artificial fragrances or perfumes.
Q: Can I use it on my baby's "Nappy Rash"?
A: Yes. MEBO is very gentle and effective for severe diaper rash or cracked skin in infants due to its natural, non-toxic ingredients.
Q: How long does a tube last?
A: This depends on the size of the wound. For a small kitchen burn, a 15g tube is sufficient. For larger areas or chronic ulcers, the 75g size is recommended.
Q: Can I use it on "Old Scars"?
A: MEBO is most effective on active healing wounds. While it may soften old scar tissue, its primary strength is preventing the scar from forming during the initial healing phase.
