great for healing a wound on my foot

Work good .

I've been using the Triple Helix Collagen Powder by MPM Medical for approximately 3 weeks now, and while it has its benefits, there are a few aspects that need improvement. Let's address the elephant in the room—the PRICE. This collagen powder is undeniably expensive, and it's disheartening to see even the tiniest grains go to waste. It's so precious that to salvage every bit, I've resorted to spooning it over a tray to catch any stray particles that might drop or fly away from encountering the electrostatic field generated by the plastic film and the Tyvek like material peel-off backing. Considering the cost, it would be great if the packaging were redesigned to prevent such losses. Every bit counts! Speaking of packaging, this brings me to my next point. Several reviewers have expressed concerns about the packaging, and I agree with their sentiments. MPM Medical should consider switching to ESD anti-static pouches that are commonly used for electronic and medical powders to prevent fly away grains. These types of pouches are shielded creating a barrier that reduces electrostatic discharge, so spooning the precious powder will not result in waste. Now, onto the positive aspect—EFFECTIVENESS. Despite the price and packaging issues, I must acknowledge the positive impact of this collagen powder. I've noticed faster healing times, particularly with a persistent S4 pressure ulcer that exposed my mother's coccyx. Although it remains in the same stage after 3 weeks of intermittent use, the wound is now showing signs of epithelialization. This gives me hope that with consistent daily use of this product, the wound will close up sooner rather than later. Nothing else I've tried (Hydrogel, MediHoney, Santyl, nanosilver gel, barrier cream, etc.) over the past 4.5 weeks has worked as quickly and effectively. I think mixing this product with MediHoney, saline, or collagenase ointment works best, but not individually. Update: Week 8, epithelialization has improved significantly. While the epidermis has not yet completely sealed, undermining has ceased and the muscle and dermal layers have fused and the diameter of the wound is diminished. I estimate another 6 weeks or so for the wound to be closed or close to it. In conclusion, the Triple Helix Collagen Powder is undeniably effective, but it comes with a hefty price tag and packaging concerns that need immediate attention. While the potential benefits, particularly in wound healing, are commendable, it's essential for MPM Medical to address these issues to provide a more satisfactory, good value, and worthwhile experience for consumers.

Simply exquisite for your own Home products. Fighting acne, dry skin, even the sister was psoriasis

Muy bueno para las curas de diabéticos

I was hoping for a miracle, and I got one! I have a nickel sized open wound directly below my right big toe, on top of my foot. I have had this wound for over 5 months! Although it was VERY SLOWLY trying to heal on its own, the fact that any pressure from shoes or slippers interfered with healing made it seem like I was never going to get it closed. I have Type II Diabetes, and had to have a partial toe amputation due to a MRSA infection a year and a half ago, so getting this wound healed before any infection set in is CRUCIAL. This has been causing me great stress and worry. I am to happy to report that after less than a week of using this powder, my wound is essentially healed! I started using it six days ago, changing the dressing and re-applying the powder every two days. I just applied my fourth dose today. Every time I changed the dressing, the wound looked greatly improved. Today, it is almost completely closed and is looking great! The surrounding area on my foot is no longer red, but normal skin colored. The swelling I've had for over 5 months has greatly receded. It is pretty expensive, and I am fortunate my wound is pretty small so I get more applications from one package, but it seems to work very quickly. It might be worth the expense to heal those stubborn wounds!

I have had an open long lasting small wound right beneath my stoma. Painful. Until I did some research and learned about collegen. Product worked well in healing wound until next flare up.
