mucoderm® | 3D-STABLE SOFT TISSUE (COLLAGEN) GRAFT

Description

mucoderm® is a three-dimensional, acellular collagen matrix derived from porcine dermis and has a high mechanical and volume stability. It is composed of a network of type I and III collagen that 
closely resembles the human connective tissue structure. 
mucoderm® has a porous, native collagen structure that, after implantation, serves as an excellent scaffold for ingrowing blood vessels and cells, therefore favoring a fast revascularization and tissue 
integration. Through the collagen production of adhering fibroblasts and gradual degradation of the matrix, mucoderm® will be remodeled in the body’s own soft tissue within about six to nine months. 
The intensive multi-step purification process ensures the safety of the final product. mucoderm® offers a valid alternative to autologous soft tissue transplants in a diverse range of soft tissue grafting indications. Its outstanding mechanical stability facilitates easy application, manipulation and fixation.
