Biological dermal templates with native collagen scaffolds provide guiding ridges for invading cells and may promote structured dermal wound healing

Dermal substitutes are of major importance in treating full thickness skin defects. They come in a variety of materials manufactured into various forms, such as films, hydrocolloids, hydrogels, sponges, membranes, and electrospun micro‐ and nanofibers. Bioactive dermal substitutes act in wound healing either by delivery of bioactive compounds or by being constructed from materials having endogenous activity. The healing success rate is highly...
