KeraStat® Cream: Better Management of Radiation Dermatitis & Post Procedure Dermatology Wounds
Better Management of Radiation Dermatitis
KeraStat® Cream harnesses the power of keratin proteins to support the management of dry, light, and moderately exuding partial thickness skin wounds such as radiation dermatitis resulting from a fractionated radiotherapy regimen. KeraStat® Cream is FDA cleared and available in 1 oz. and 5 mL tubes. Rx only. At KeraNetics™, we understand there are many OTC and Rx products on the market that show limited efficacy. KeraStat® Cream has been developed to finally give you and your patients an effective solution for the management of radiation dermatitis.


Empowering Clinicians to Provide Better Care for Radiotherapy
By applying KeraStat® Cream after the first radiotherapy treatment, the patient should see a noticeably shortened period of erythema. With continued use of KeraStat® Cream, our pilot studies of breast, head, neck and throat radiotherapy treatments produced later onset and less severe cases of dry and moist desquamation and ulceration. KeraStat® Cream can also be used on patients with skin and other cancers receiving radiotherapy.
For small treatment areas, a single 1 oz. tube should last the duration of an 8-week therapy session. Variation may occur depending on the size of the treatment area.
How to Apply KeraStat® Cream
When do you treat your patients for Radiodermatitis with KeraStat® Cream?
Patient skin biology is often different even when physical appearance is similar. In your practice, you routinely see patients that may or may not develop significant symptoms of radiodermatitis. KeraStat® Cream is a solution to manage these symptoms. To get the best results, KeraStat® Cream should be used prophylactically to help prevent the onset of radiodermatitis and/or lessen the severity of symptoms. If your practice waits for symptoms of radiodermatitis before prescribing treatment, KeraStat® Cream can still be effective. KeraStat® Cream has been developed to manage the symptoms of radiodermatitis and increase your patient’s Quality of Life.
- Start using KeraStat® Cream following first radiation treatment. Prepare the treated area by cleaning with warm water and mild, fragrance free soap.
- Twice daily, express a small pea sized dab of KeraStat® Cream from the tube and cover the treated area and surrounding skin.
- Lightly spread KeraStat® Cream to form a thin layer over the treatment surface and edges of uninjured adjoining skin. Ensure the entire treated area is covered lightly with the cream.
- KeraStat Cream is not meant to replace the patient’s daily moisturizing routine, which can be continued as directed.
- Do not apply KeraStat® Cream four hours prior to a radiation session.
- A secondary dressing may be applied if desired.

At KeraNetics™, we understand there are many OTC and Rx products on the market that show limited efficacy.

Empowering Dermatologists to Provide Better Care for Dermatology Patients Using Keratin Proteins
By applying KeraStat® Cream to the post treatment wound area, the patient should see a noticeably shortened period of erythema. With continued use of KeraStat® Cream, our pilot studies in breast, head, neck and throat radiotherapy treatments produced later onset and less severe cases of dry and moist desquamation and ulceration. Post procedure wounds like those produced from laser resurfacing should see similar results as those seen in our pilot studies.
For post procedure treatment areas, refer to product application instructions described on the other side of this document. Variation in amount needed may occur depending on the size of the treatment area.
How to Apply KeraStat® Cream
When do you treat your patients with KeraStat® Cream?
Patient skin biology is often different even when physical appearance is similar. In your practice, you routinely see patients that may develop significantly longer wound recovery rates. KeraStat® Cream is a novel solution to manage recovery rates using the power of keratin proteins.
To get the best results, KeraStat® Cream should be used post procedure according to the directions for uses on the back of this document.
KeraStat® Cream has been developed for post procedure wound management and increasing your patient’s Quality of Life.
- Prepare the treated area by cleaning with warm water and mild, fragrance-free soap.
- Apply KeraStat® Cream two times a day (recommended once in the morning and once before bed).

- Squeeze a small pea sized dab of KeraStat® Cream from the tube and cover the treatment area and surrounding skin.
- Lightly spread KeraStat® Cream to form a thin layer over the area of skin treated and edges of skin around the affected area. Ensure the entire treated area is covered lightly with the cream.
