Coloplast Collagen Hydrogel For Wound Dressing 3 oz

I never heard of coloplast. My surgeon called in the fantastic stuff. The nurse gave me the information to purchase as this cream helps heal wounds. She said it’s great to have on hand to help speed up the process of healing. I have 4 incisions that are taking forever to heal. In the last four days of using you can see the difference already. I did get these gel instead of the paste. The paste is like diaper cream so use sparingly as it spreads. It will also coat the skin and may make it hard to have a bandage stick. So far the gel is easy to control.

Prescribed by doctor. Worked good. Price cheaper than script.

its an amazing product, it keeps your wound moist especially if it tends to be dry with alot of scabs, it helps with new skin growth and prevent the affected area from turning black

Great stuff used to heal bad. Burn on my abdomen from boiling water

I guess it worked ok. I bought this for my Dad who had a wound on his back that just wouldn't heal (he's diabetic). This helped but it didn't do as much as I thought. To be fair, he ended up going to the doctor and having a biopsy which revealed that the skin surrounding the wound was cancerous so that might be why it wasn't healing normally even with the collagen. He had surgery to remove the section of skin and is doing fine.

Very good product

This ointment was recommended to us by a friend in the military, and it works amazingly well! We love that this version is clear and helps. The wounds heal very quickly. Highly recommended for wound treatment.

..I’m going to have to update this review, since I’ve only used this gel for one night! (See update, below) However, I’m cautiously optimistic that it’s going to work. I have two self inflicted TCA burns on my face. In short, I’m an idiot. I have used 30% TCA before and it’s NEVER given me damaged skin, but this time it looks like I may have pressed too hard (?!?!) b/c I have two small areas that have not yet healed, and it has been FIVE WEEKS! So I’m starting to freak out. I’ve kept both areas hydrated 24/7 with “barrier cream” that’s formulated for use after peels. But it is just. not. healing. I basically have a tiny hole on the top of my nose that won’t close, and a tiny divot on my chin. Anyway, I used this gel on them last night and applied bandaids. Until now, I have just used the barrier cream, with no dressing, since dressing is difficult to keep in place on the face. I did apply a bandaid once, on my nose (with the barrier cream), and it made little difference, so I didn’t do it again. However, with this gel, it looked much smaller, when I woke up! So I quickly applied more gel and covered it, once again. I’m going to try to leave the bandages on for awhile, since this is the first time I’ve had hope, in five weeks! I’ll update soon. Wish me luck!Update: It has been a week, and my wounds have finally healed enough for me to begin working on scar treatment! I’m most impressed by my tiny nose wound, since that was still open enough to see white collagen, etc., after 5 weeks, and this product closed it in less than a week—and managed to flatten the little scar that was forming around the hole!A few things to note: the consistency is like gelatin (as you can imagine since they’re made from the same ingredient). Thus, it won’t stay moist unless you cover it. For all I know, it dries when you cover it, but I imagine it stays wet longer that way. If left uncovered, the collagen will dry into a little barrier that you can actually peel off. No idea whether it’s effective this way, so I tried to keep it covered. Not easy, especially on the face!Suffice to say, I am now a very big believer in this product. And it’s so much less expensive than the other products I found!
