dermal substitutes
Dermal substitutes are advanced materials used to replace or support damaged skin layers, especially the dermis (the middle skin layer). They help promote healing by providing a scaffold that encourages new tissue growth, reducing scarring and improving skin durability. These products are often used in burn treatments or wounds where natural skin is missing or severely injured. Made from biocompatible materials like collagen or synthetic fibers, dermal substitutes integrate with the body over time, aiding in tissue regeneration and restoring skin function and appearance.
