Collagen-based Biomaterials

Collagen-based biomaterials are medical or cosmetic products made from collagen, a natural protein found in the body’s skin, bones, and tissues. These materials are used to support healing, tissue regeneration, or improve skin appearance because collagen helps maintain structure and elasticity. They can be derived from animal sources or synthesized in labs and are utilized in wound dressings, implants, and cosmetic treatments to promote natural tissue repair. Collagen biomaterials are valued for their biocompatibility, ability to integrate with the body’s tissues, and their role in restoring or enhancing tissue function.
