I'm always looking for ways to help out our patients, especially during times like these.
One of the best ways we can protect ourselves during the COVID-19 pandemic is to keep our hands and faces as clean as possible.
While we all now are much better at washing our hands, I want to encourage you to also wash your face several times a day as an added precaution.
In addition to this, we now have Hypoclorous Facial Spray, which is a great facial cleanser and disinfectant. We are recommending that our patients use this several times a day to cleanse the entire face as an added level of protection. Hypoclorous Acid showers are currently used in South Korea to disinfect doctors and staff after a shift seeing potential Covid-19 patients.
While nothing is a guarantee against infection, we are wanting to make sure we are taking care or you to the best of our ability.
To order your Hypoclorous spray, click on the following link to visit our Shopify store. We are shipping this to our patients for free so that you don't have to come into the office.
