What is placental tissue?

Placental tissue has been used to treat wounds & burns for over 20 years. Amnion is the inner-most lining of the placenta where your baby resides. It provides a barrier to the outside environment to protect your little one.
When you donate your placenta after a C-section, our team separates the amnion from the placenta and processes it into grafts that are used to help treat painful wounds and burns. People at risk of losing their limbs can continue walking as a result of your selfless donation.
If you'd like to read more about the ways your donation can help others, please see our resources page.
