Momelan Technologies Epidermal Graft Harvesting System

Study Description

Brief Summary: This case series will assess the use of suction blister epidermal grafts harvested by a novel device on select patients that have wounds from Mohs or excisional surgery.

Detailed Description: This study evaluates a novel micrografting technique to determine how it will influence the healing and cosmetic result of selected post surgical wounds in 12 subjects. The Epidermal Expansion System (designed by MoMelan Technologies) will generate an array of small microblisters and transfer the micrografts to a sterile wound dressing for application to the subject's surgical area. The sponsor hypothesizes that applying expanded micrografts to wounds that otherwise would have healed by second intention alone will hasten healing and possibly reduce scarring.
