The Science Behind EpiEffect™
EpiEffect™, an innovative tri-layer human placental allograft developed by MiMedx, represents a significant advancement in the field of wound care management. Designed to address both acute and chronic wounds, EpiEffect™ utilizes a lyophilized membrane that includes the amnion, intermediate, and chorion layers. This unique structure provides a protective barrier that supports the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Rich in over 300 regulatory proteins, EpiEffect™ delivers a biocompatible Extracellular Matrix (ECM) crucial for effective wound healing.
