How biologics help

  • Protection: High tensile strength: Stronger than amnion alone.4
  • Support: Acts as a natural, adhesive barrier to protect delicate tissues during recovery.4
  • Recovery: Encourages faster, healthier recovery for a wide range of conditions.1-3
  • Comfort: Designed to minimize pain, reduce the risk of complications, and promote better outcomes.1-3
