Advanced Wound Care with Amnion Grafts in Westchester, NY
Healing wounds and diabetic foot ulcers with amniotic tissue grafts
Amnion grafts come from placental tissue and contain natural healing factors that help calm inflammation and support the body's own repair process in difficult wounds.
Conditions treated
- Diabetic foot ulcers
- Venous and pressure ulcers
- Non-healing surgical wounds
- Traumatic wounds that are slow to close
How amnion grafts are applied
- The wound is gently cleaned and any damaged tissue is removed to help it heal better
- The amnion graft is placed directly over the wound
- The graft is covered with a protective dressing
- In some cases, repeat treatments may be needed as the wound heals
Amnion grafts help the body heal wounds faster, reduce inflammation, and support new tissue growth. They are very well tolerated and can be safely combined with standard wound care treatments like offloading and compression.
What patients can expect
Most patients see gradual improvement over time, including healthier-looking tissue and a slow reduction in wound size.
Regular follow-up care and pressure relief on the area are important for the best healing results.
