About AVITA Medical Limited
AVITA Medical is a regenerative medicine company with a
technology platform positioned to address unmet medical needs in
burns, chronic wounds, and aesthetics indications. AVITA Medical’s
patented and proprietary collection and application technology
provides innovative treatment solutions derived from the
regenerative properties of a patient’s own skin. The medical
devices work by preparing a REGENERATIVE EPIDERMAL SUSPENSION™
(RES™), an autologous suspension comprised of the patient’s skin
cells necessary to regenerate natural healthy epidermis. This
autologous suspension is then sprayed onto the areas of the patient
requiring treatment.
AVITA Medical’s first U.S. product, the RECELL® System, was
approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in
September 2018. The RECELL System is indicated for use in the
treatment of acute thermal burns in patients 18 years and older.
The RECELL System is used to prepare Spray-On Skin™ Cells using a
small amount of a patient’s own skin, providing a new way to treat
severe burns, while significantly reducing the amount of donor skin
required. The RECELL System is designed to be used at the point of
care alone or in combination with autografts depending on the depth
of the burn injury. Compelling data from randomized, controlled
clinical trials conducted at major U.S. Burn Centers and real-world
use in more than 8,000 patients globally, reinforce that the RECELL
System is a significant advancement over the current standard of
care for burn patients and offers benefits in clinical outcomes and
cost savings. Healthcare professionals should read the INSTRUCTIONS
FOR USE - RECELL® Autologous Cell Harvesting Device
(https://recellsystem.com/) for a full description of indications
for use and important safety information including
contraindications, warnings and precautions.
In international markets outside of Europe, our products are
marketed under the RECELL System brand to promote skin healing in a
wide range of applications including burns, chronic wounds and
aesthetics. The RECELL System is TGA-registered in Australia,
CFDA-cleared in China, and received CE-mark approval in Europe.
