About ReCell®
ReCell® is a medical device which enables clinicians to safely and rapidly create a treatment solution for burns and acute injuries from a patient’s own skin.
Using a small sample of skin, the device enables the production of a Regenerative Epithelial Suspension (RES™). The autologous suspension contains the multi-phenotype cells and wound-healing factors essential for natural healthy skin regeneration and healing. The procedure performed at the patient’s bedside takes about 30 minutes from collecting the biopsy to spraying of the suspension onto the affected area.
ReCell® can be used in conjunction with conventional treatments for burns and reconstructive procedures, and has been used safely in thousands of treatments worldwide. Recent data showed that treatment of ReCell® decreased length of hospital stay in patients with large burns by 47%.
