Collagen therapy is a treatment for wounds that helps them heal faster and reduces scarring. Collagen is an important part of our skin and other tissues, and it helps the body repair itself. When used on wounds, collagen dressings can:
MMPs are enzymes that break down collagen. By using collagen dressings, these enzymes use the dressing instead of the body’s own collagen, allowing the body’s natural collagen to be used for healing.

Collagen is the most prevalent protein in the body that is necessary for wound healing. Your body naturally makes collagen by breaking down dietary proteins into amino acids. Maintaining your body’s natural production of collagen is important because collagen is found in all your connective tissues. Wounds happen due to the damage to the tissues. when tissues are damaged, they need extra collagen to heal and repair the wound. Collagen in wound healing helps by attracting fibroblasts. Fibroblasts are the cells within your connective tissues that produce collagen and other fibers. When you do not have enough collagen to devote to wound healing specifically, wound healing takes longer because your body lacks the natural proteins to reconstruct the wounded area.
Collagen dressings help provide an optimal environment for wound healing. Collagen assists with inflammation, help prevent infection, slow the rate of scarring (fibrosis), and sometimes offer analgesic (pain relieving) properties. Collagen therapy also helps in formation of new skin cells and blood vessel growth.
When our bodies sustain an injury, whether it’s a sprained ankle or a torn ligament, the wound healing process kicks into gear. Collagen is an integral protein needed for wound healing post injuries.
The principal function of collagen is to act as a scaffold in connective tissue, along with helping the body’s natural healing process, providing a framework for new cells to grow and to bind to and deactivate enzymes called MMPs that break down collagen.
Collagen dressing on the wound can be left in place for up to 7 days.
