Achieving hemostasis in cutaneous surgery on bony or irregular surfaces can be challenging; typical pressure dressings that act by mechanical occlusion with petrolatum gauze can be inadequate. We offer the use of bone wax as a practical hemostatic agent that can be (1) molded to provide ideal occlusion and pressure without adhering to wound surfaces and (2) painlessly and simply removed.
