Technology & Products
Key Products
TissueDerm / Tissuemesh BCS (PCL 3D-printed hybrid mesh for post-mastectomy breast reconstruction, MFDS Class IV approved, exported to 50+ countries); TissueDerm Orbit; TissueDerm Graft; Medi A Derm; hybrid mesh 'TissueDerm' for scar/adhesion soft-tissue scaffolding (launching at KIMES BUSAN 2026); Yourif regenerative-medicine skincare brand
Technological Advantage
Proprietary 3D-printed PCL/collagen hybrid mesh scaffold platform; KGMP and ISO 13485 certified; Korea MFDS Class IV device approval for TissueDerm; tunable design by body part and surgical context
Differentiation
Value Proposition
3D-printed bioresorbable PCL mesh scaffolds promote autologous tissue regeneration at surgical and scar/adhesion sites, offered as a synthetic, uniform-thickness alternative to allogeneic dermal matrix (ADM) grafts, which the company says suffer from irregular absorption, hardening, high cost, and supply constraints.
How They Differentiate
Positions its synthetic, 3D-printed PCL mesh as a lower-cost, non-immunogenic, uniformly-manufactured alternative to donor-tissue-derived ADM grafts, with design flexibility to tailor mesh geometry by body part and surgical indication
