Has anyone researched Excellagen? It has been FDA cleared and it appears it will be on the market very soon and is safer and proven to be more effective than Regranex. Excellagen is a new, highly-refined bovine Type I collagen–based topical gel designed to support favorable wound care management. Excellagen's unique fibrillar collagen formulation is topically applied through easy to control pre-filled syringes. Excellagen is intended for use during surgical debridement procedures and can also be used as a primary dressing option to facilitate any good wound care regimen.

Excellagen just approved by FDA is a highly purified, physiologically formulated fibrillar bovine Type I collagen-based topical gel (2.6% collagen) designed to support favorable wound care management. There are no other collagen-based wound care management dressings available for professional use in the United States that are considered comparable to Excellagen in terms of its overall formulation, fibrillar nature, and product format. Other professional-use collagen-based products include granulated collagens that require mixing prior to use, as well as a variety of sheet-based products.
Regranex is patient administered, requires daily application followed by a daily cleansing 12 hours after the drug treatment over a 20-week period. As a result, during the prescribed 20-week treatment period, Regranex patients are required to undertake approximately 280 interventions (drug administrations and cleansings) to achieve the potential maximum healing effect.
