Fetal Collagen
The source material used to produce TissueMend is fetal bovine dermis. Studies in fetal wound healing have demonstrated that fetal skin has remarkable regenerative capacities.1 Furthermore, fetal dermis contains minimal hair and hair follicles, which can cause imperfections in collagen structure.
