REVAMIL COLLAGEN
Revamil Collagen is formed by heterologous type I horse collagen, with the addition of pure honey, under form of spongy pads, lyophilized and sterile, easily adaptable to the areas of application.
Revamil Collagen acts as mechanical support and catalyst to fibroblasts migration and to the growth of granulation tissue and provides the necessary scaffold to natural derma regeneration. The honey contains a high concentration of honey enzymes; while initially the osmotic effect of the honey sugars protects the wound against bacteria and forms a protective layer. The honey creates the ideal moist wound environment that facilitates the natural debridement of the wound and, combined with collagen, facilitates the granulation tissue formation.
The combination collagen+honey results in a layer which helps to strengthen the antibacterial protection of the dressing, favouring the natural healing process
Revamil® Collagen key characteristics are:
- Growth of granulation tissue, provides necessary scaffold to regeneration
- Protection against bacteria. Factors that contribute to the protection are the low pH, the enzymes in the honey, and the low activity of water and high sugar content.
- The combination collagen+honey strengthens the antibacterial protection and favours the natural healing process
To use for: the treatment of pressure ulcers, venous ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers, chronic skin lesions and acute traumatic wounds, adjuvant in the physiological processes of wound healing, haemostat

Directions for use
1. Use the product immediately after opening of the primary package.
2. On infected wounds, before using the product, perform a systemic antibiotic and/or topical antimicrobial treatment.
3. Pre-treat the wound bed and cleanse the lesion with a humid gauze soaked in saline solution,
4. After the process of debridement, apply the pad on the wound. In case of low exudate moisturize the pad with saline solution.
5. Use one or more pads, placed contiguously or overlapped if necessary, in order to cover the entire lesion, ensuring that the pad has full contact with the entire area to be treated.
6. Fix the pad to the lesion by means of a sterile gauze or a non-adherent dressing, then apply elastic compression bandage.
7. It is recommended to apply the dressing every 3-4 days or at smaller intervals, depending on the wound exudate. The wound should be monitored every 2-3 days.
8. To maintain a humid microclimate cover ideally with more or less absorbent secondary dressing depending on the level of exudate and apply a bandage.
