Description

Hyalomatrix is a biotechnologically engineered skin substitute used in the medical and cosmetic industries for wound healing and skin regeneration. It is composed of a bilayered structure that mimics the extracellular matrix, providing an optimal environment for cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation.

Chemical Composition and Structure
Hyalomatrix contains bioactive components that contribute to its effectiveness in skin repair and regeneration. The specific composition includes:

Hyaluronic Acid (HA): A naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan that provides hydration, supports collagen synthesis, and promotes cell migration and proliferation.
Silicone Layer: Acts as a temporary barrier, protecting the wound from external contaminants while maintaining a moist wound environment.
Fibrous Matrix: Made of hyaluronic acid and other biopolymers that provide structural support and enhance tissue integration.
Physical Properties
Hyalomatrix typically appears as a flexible, semi-transparent dressing that conforms to the wound bed. It is designed to be easy to apply and remove, minimizing discomfort for patients.

Medical and Cosmetic Applications
Wound Healing: Hyalomatrix is widely used for the treatment of various types of wounds, including chronic ulcers, burns, and surgical wounds. It promotes faster healing by providing a scaffold for new tissue formation and reducing inflammation.

Skin Regeneration: The bioactive components in Hyalomatrix enhance skin regeneration by supporting the natural healing processes and encouraging the formation of new blood vessels and collagen.

Scar Reduction: By promoting organized tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation, Hyalomatrix helps to minimize scar formation and improve the appearance of healed skin.

Moisture Retention: The hyaluronic acid in Hyalomatrix retains moisture in the wound bed, creating an optimal healing environment and preventing desiccation.

Environmental and Safety Considerations

Hyalomatrix is generally considered safe for use in medical and cosmetic applications. It is biocompatible, non-toxic, and suitable for most skin types. As a biotechnologically derived product, it is designed to degrade naturally and poses minimal risk to the environment when disposed of responsibly.

Cosmetics - INCI Functions


Skin conditioning agent. It is the mainstay of topical skin treatment as it has the function of restoring, increasing or improving skin tolerance to external factors, including melanocyte tolerance. The most important function of the conditioning agent is to prevent skin dehydration, but the subject is rather complex and involves emollients and humectants that can be added in the formulation.
