Equine Tendon and Ligament Injuries
ACell Vet has been used primarily for treating equine tendon and ligament injuries, but our extracellular matrix product can also be used to heal this type of injury in small animals.
Greater Success in Restoring Full Function
The stress of racing, jumping, cutting and other performance maneuvers often results in debilitating tendon and ligament injuries. The horse’s athletic performance, quality of life and financial value depend on fast and effective healing of these injuries.
While traditional therapies reduce inflammation, healing is slow and the formation of scar tissue often results in loss of function. Thanks to new advances in the field of regenerative medicine equine tendon and ligament injuries can now be treated with greater success for returning sport horses to high levels of competition.
A New Advanced Treatment
The result of years of research and development in regenerative medicine, an injection of ACell Vet Powder in suspension provides an advanced solution for the treatment of equine tendon and ligament injuries. With this ACell Vet treatment, the equine veterinarian can now deliver the power of regenerative medicine directly to the injured site where it is needed.
ACell Vet’s advanced bioactive healing process offers the following benefits:
- Regenerates normal site specific tissue.
- Reduction in scar tissue improves functionality and performance.
- Healing is significantly faster than traditional treatment.
- Antimicrobial properties reduce infection rates.
