  • Collagen and EDTA work together to target and deactivate excess MMPs, thus triggering the healing process in chronic wounds
  • EDTA in the dressing is intended to help maintain dressing integrity
  • Sheets may be trimmed to exact wound size and/or layered for the management of deep wounds
  • Should not be used on third-degree burns or on patients with a known allergy or sensitivity to fish-derived collagen or any other ingredient
