ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

ACell

Acell is a thing that doctors use to help your body heal when you get hurt. It's kind of like a superhero that makes your own cells work better to fix the boo-boo on your skin.

When you get hurt, like if you get a cut or a scrape, your body sends little cells called fibroblasts to the area to help make new skin cells and heal the wound. But sometimes your body needs a little extra help to make the new cells grow faster and stronger. That's where acell comes in!

Acell is made of natural materials that help your body grow new cells better and faster. Doctors put a sheet of acell over the wound and it helps your body make new skin cells and tissue to heal the boo-boo faster.

It's sort of like adding extra helpers to a construction site to finish the building faster. Acell is the extra helpers that your body uses to fix the boo-boo on your skin. And before you know it, your skin will look as good as new!
