The present invention is a formulation of organic and non-organic components for rapid wound healing and control of infection. The components of the present invention i.e. the formulation are an antimicrobial agent, an antioxidant, a cell proliferation inducing factor and an organic component responsible for matrix formation. Adding these four components in pre-determined proportions, formulations can be made for gels, liquid solution and biodegradable scaffolds which are safe and gives a synergistic effect.

A medical device may include an implantable device for treating a body tissue structure. The implantable device may include a wire structure which may include a wave pattern. The wire structure may be elastic so as to provide a pressure around the body tissue structure such that the pressure may change with movement of the body tissue structure.
