Collagen dressings are dressings that are derived from animal sources, such as bovine (cattle), equine (horse) or porcine (pig) sources. The collagen helps to promote the growth of new collagen at the wound site, prompting an often speedier recovery period.
Within wound healing, collagen attracts new skin cells to the wound site, promotes healing and provides a platform for the growth of new tissue. Collagen dressings are therefore used in order to aid the healing of certain types of wound, including: 1  Chronic non-healing wounds. 2  Exuding wounds. 3  Granulating or necrotic wounds. 4  Partial and full-thickness wounds. 5  Second-degree burns. 6  Sites of skin donation and skin grafts.
