Cellesta Flowable Amnion is a minimally manipulated amniotic membrane allograft
INTENDED USES: Cellesta Flowable Amnion is a chorion-free, human amniotic membrane intended for use as a regenerative wound filler for the treatment of acute, chronic and surgically-created wounds. Its flowable format is specifically designed for treatment of deep dermal wounds, irregularly-shaped crevassing and tunneling wounds, augmentation of deficient/inadequate soft tissue, and other complex wound cases where a patch form of amniotic membrane may not provide complete wound coverage.
CLAIMED BENEFITS: Amniotic membrane is a natural tissue matrix that retains a variety of innate biologic elements that support critical functions of the wound healing cascade. Cellesta Flowable Amnion is a particulate form of amniotic membrane suspended in a saline solution for direct application, intended for homologous use only. Its inherent structural makeup allows it to act also as a cushion in dynamic environments
OPTION: per 0.5 cc

The addition of Skin Substitutes or Cellular or Tissue Based Products (CTPs) to certain wounds may afford a healing advantage over dressings and conservative treatments when these options appear insufficient to affect complete healing, after at least a 30 day period of comprehensive conservative therapy. There are currently a wide variety of bioengineered products available for soft tissue coverage to affect closure.
