Our NuMed Collagen Dressings encourage natural healing by donating collagen fibers that are essential for wound closure. They also have medium absorption and help maintain an ideal healing environment. These advanced wound care dressings can stay in place for several days, removing dead tissue and stimulating the growth of healthy tissue while controlling exudate.

 

Collagen Wound Dressings | Wound Care Made Simple

 

How To Use Collagen Dressings:

• Clean the wound and the surrounding skin
• Place Collagen Dressing directly on the wound (some skin overlap is ok, may also be cut to size if using for smaller wounds)
• Secure in place with adhesive dressing/bandage (Bordered Gauze, Silicone Dressing, bandaid, tegaderm or medical tape)
• Change after 5 days or when saturated

 

 

What is a Collagen Dressing?

Collagen is an essential protein that plays a major role in the healing process. In order to heal injured tissue and form new connective tissue, the body requires increased levels of collagen synthesis.

Collagen dressings promote wound healing by donating this key protein at the surface of the wound and stimulating the production of new collagen fibers and granulation tissue.

Collagen wound dressings also help to remove nonviable tissue and support new blood vessels formed during the healing process. In the final stages of wound healing, collagen dressings facilitate repair (epithelialization) across the surface of the wound while supporting and strengthening this new tissue.

Collagen dressings are non-adherent to the wound bed, which reduces trauma and pain upon removal and makes dressing changes simple.

 

Our Collagen Dressings contain type 1 collagen derived from 100% bovine (cattle) collagen membrane. In addition to encouraging natural growth and healing, these dressings help to maintain a moist healing environment by absorbing excess drainage.
