1. A skin substitute, the skin substitute comprised of two layers of material,
the first layer of material, an upper layer, comprised of a silicone membrane, the second layer, a lower layer, comprised of a woven nylon fabric, the silicone membrane selected in a thickness from 0.001″ to 0.005″, the upper layer possessing a plurality of slits in its surface, said slits made after the two layers are joined together, said slits in a pattern comprised of multiple rows of parallel slits, the lower layer woven in a regular pattern with a perpendicular wale and course orientation, the slits on the surface either following the wale direction of the lower layer or crossing the wale direction of the lower layer perpendicularly, said upper layer and said lower layer treated with a plurality of layers of medicinal or therapeutic substances applied to the two layers of the skin substitute, said lower layer also treated with a water soluble or water insoluble anti-scar compound, said slits placed in said upper layer such that the skin substitute has essentially zero porosity with no stretching tension placed on it, the porosity of said skin substitute variable proportional to the amount of stretching tension and the direction in which said stretching tension is placed on the skin substitute, the direction of stretching tension dependent on the orientation of said slits with the wale and course orientation of the woven nylon fabric, the skin substitute designed to place the woven nylon fabric side down on top of a wound when in use, the skin substitute selected to be used in combination with an absorptive dressing placed above said skin substitute over the wound. |
