Cutaneous Leishmaniasis - CL
Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) is a parasitic disease that is caused by the bite of the sand fly. This disease causes multiple skin lesions most commonly found on the face, arms and legs. Until the use of TTI's technology the treatment has been painful daily injections of a heavy metal drug that has life threatening side effects. TTI is now recognized as the proven treatment protocol.
