    Glossary Skin Substitutes

    materials used to replace or repair damaged skin

    Skin substitutes are materials used to replace or aid in the repair of damaged skin, often in cases of severe burns, chronic wounds, or extensive skin loss. These can be made from natural sources like human or animal tissues, or synthetic materials designed to mimic the properties of skin, providing a temporary or permanent solution to promote healing and protect underlying tissues.
