These products also help with the use of silicone or saline adhésive for wound closure. Adhesive covers the wound bed and helps to prevent the growth of bacteria. These biological skin replacements can not, however, be paired with autologous fat transfers. Instead, they can be used for traditional sutures.
The biological composition of artificial skin grafts is the main difference between these two types of transfers of tissue. Adult human epidermis from anywhere in the body produces grown skin grafting, which then is transformed into useful, elastic tissue strands that can easily be tied to individual patches or slabs. Unlike bacterial skin grafting, dermis-produced skin replacements obtained from other parts of the body are made for the normal thickness and structure of the patient's own skin. This is important if these skin substitutions are to have a long-term effect on the patient. Normally, skin grease consists of natural human tissues including the epidermis, connective tissue, muscle, and fascia.
Xenografts consist of the true hair of a man. These hair strands have been derived from areas of the head that have no facial hair, like temples, cheeks, or eyelids. The hair is tightly woven into a long, protective dressing to bandage the injuries, repair the hair missing, or hide scars or burn marks. Xenografts can also be used to treat a number of injuries and diseases in conjunction with other allografts.
