Advanced Wound Matrix
Geistlich Derma-Gide® Second generation xenograft featuring 4 dimensions of product design:
- Dual Sourced
- Highly Refined
- Bi-Layered
- Structurally Optimized
Discover how the advanced design of Geistlich Derma-Gide® transforms two distinct source tissues to a clinically effective Advanced Wound Matrix.
![Dual Layer](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0266/2544/1877/files/csm_01-Dual-Sourced-Render-02_6a29ae8120_480x480.jpg?v=1625775971)
- Two distinct sources from porcine are selected for their specific characteristics and provide the best composition for further refinement.
- These two source tissues are protected by trade secrets and are not disclosed to the public but are not SIS or dermis.
![Highly Refined](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0266/2544/1877/files/csm_02-Highly-Refined-Render-02_74a2e47929_480x480.jpg?v=1625776038)
- Based on 170 years of expertise, Geistlich transforms the source tissues into an advanced design with the precise characteristics to support wound healing.
- The refinement step differentiates Geistlich Derma-Gide® from allografts – which can only be minimally manipulated – and other first generation xenografts.
![Bi-Layer Render](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0266/2544/1877/files/csm_03-Bi-Layered-Render-04_d9292c7035_480x480.jpg?v=1625776333)
- The bi-layered design of Geistlich Derma-Gide® mimics the structural organization of human skin facilitating re-epithelialization and cell ingrowth.
- The integrated structure is a result of the refinement process and the two layers are mechanically linked to form a durable and easy application.
![Structurally Optimized](https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0266/2544/1877/files/csm_04-Structurally-Optimized-Render-04_d66329470b_480x480.jpg?v=1625776423)
- The upper compact layer of Geistlich Derma-Gide® mimics the skin’s basement membrane allowing keratinocyte migration as well as growth factor binding and preservation. It also protects the wound site and allows suturing if desired.
- The structure of the lower porous layer of Geistlich Derma-Gide® supports MMP activity modulation which supports the formation of a physiological extracellular matrix. It also provides an optimized environment for cell migration, attachment and vascularization and can absorb up to nine times its weight in wound fluids.
The Geistlich Derma-Gide® Advanced Wound Matrix is an acellular bilayer scaffold derived from porcine extracellular matrix (100% veterinary certified) designed specifically to support wound healing.
