Perilav Jet Lavage System

Dr. James Stiehl, founder and inventor of the Perilav system, is still a treating clinician. He regularly sees patients in skilled nursing facilities and when appropriate uses the Perilav system as part of his treatment. He has done 1000’s of treatments and regularly documents the incredible results that he sees when Perilav is used in conjunction with effective topical wound management.
