Unlike Strattice, which is derived from porcine (pig) dermis, GalaFLEX is a synthetic bioresorbable polymer that does not contain animal or human-derived materials. This makes it an excellent option for patients who prefer non-biologic materials or have concerns about tissue-based scaffolds. Additionally, because GalaFLEX encourages collagen production and tissue regeneration, it leaves behind a naturally reinforced support structure without a permanent foreign material remaining in the body.
