Skin Substitutes
At Wound Care St. Augustine, we specialize in the application of artificial and bioengineered skin substitutes, sometimes referred to as grafts to promote faster healing in complex or non-healing wounds. Whether your wound is too large to close naturally or needs additional support, skin grafting can help restore tissue, reduce scarring, and improve outcomes.
Restore What’s Lost. Support What’s Healing.
When a wound is too deep, too large, or too slow to heal, a skin substitute can provide the extra support your body needs to recover. At Wound Care St. Augustine, we use both artificial and bioengineered skin substitutes to encourage healthy tissue growth, reduce the risk of infection, and improve long-term wound closure. Our goal is to give your body the best chance to heal — fully, safely, and with less scarring.
What Is a Skin Graft?
Skin grafting is a specialized procedure used to cover and protect wounds that cannot heal on their own. It involves applying artificial or bioengineered skin to help close the wound, stimulate tissue regeneration, and prevent infection.
At Wound Care St. Augustine, we offer the latest in grafting technology — including lab-cultured living tissue and synthetic skin substitutes — all selected to match your specific wound type and healing goals.
