A barrier incision is a surgical procedure that is used to prevent infection from spreading in the body. It involves making an incision in an area where the infection may have spread but has not affected the affected tissue.
A barrier incision can be made in various areas of the body, including the skin and subcutaneous tissue. It is performed in unaffected tissue to create a barrier between the affected area and undamaged tissue. This helps prevent the spread of infection and reduce the risk of complications.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and takes about 15-20 minutes. After the incision, the doctor places stitches around the edges of the wound to prevent it from coming apart.
Although the Barrier Incision is a safe and effective procedure, it may be contraindicated in some cases, such as those with skin conditions or other complications. Therefore, you should consult your doctor before undergoing this procedure.

A barrier incision is an incision placed between tissue that has been damaged and undamaged tissue. Its purpose is to block the path for the spread of anaerobic infections in the body. At the same time, doctors can install several tubes into one “barrier” type incision to drain fluids or apply a material into the same incision, which over time is absorbed throughout the body, clogging the damaged area and protecting the wound from the penetration of bacteria and infections.
