For Patients

Regain Comfort and Confidence with Advanced Wound Care

Struggling with a chronic wound that just won’t heal? You’re not alone and help is available.

At GWS Biologics, we connect patients like you with trusted providers who offer breakthrough care using amniotic membrane grafts. These cutting-edge treatments can support faster healing, reduce pain, and help avoid invasive procedures.

What Is Amniotic Tissue Grafting?

Amniotic grafts are a type of biological dressing made from the innermost layer of the placenta. These allografts are donated by healthy mothers after childbirth and processed to preserve natural healing properties. They are:

  • Safe and sterile – processed under strict standards
  • Non-invasive – applied topically to the wound, no surgery needed
  • Effective – shown to reduce inflammation and promote tissue repair
  • Minimally rejected – low risk of immune reaction

Who Can Benefit?

Amniotic grafts are used to manage many types of non-healing wounds, including:

  • Diabetic foot ulcers
  • Venous leg ulcers
  • Pressure sores
  • Post-surgical wounds
  • Wounds that haven’t responded to standard treatment

These advanced therapies are especially helpful for wounds that have lasted more than 30 days without improvement.

What to Expect

If you qualify for care, a licensed medical provider will assess your wound and determine if amniotic treatment is appropriate. Applications are typically done weekly, up to 10 times, depending on your wound’s healing rate and insurance coverage.

This treatment may be available in your home, at a clinic, or in a nursing or assisted living facility.

Is It Covered by Insurance?

Yes, in many cases.

Medicare Part B and most commercial plans may cover amniotic grafts when medically necessary. Before treatment begins, your insurance benefits will be verified by your provider to confirm eligibility.
