Rethink Burn Care
Its time to
While improvements in standard of care have been very successful in terms of survival rates, patients emerge from treatment disfigured and disabled by scarring, fibrosis and contracture.
Physical disability and psychosocial challenges interfere with re-integration into society and a return to meaningful work. As a result, financial outlook for survivors is poor.
Regardless of where in the world a serious might burn occur, survivor quality of life is abysmal.

"The next frontier of burn care is centered on survivor quality of life"
"No other injury results in so much unnecessary human suffering"

A Novel Approach
Introducing the TreystaCare™ System
The TreystaCare™ System is a treatment technology for the care of serious second and third degree burns, currently under development by Treysta Medical Technologies.
Our unique platform will be used in emergency settings and across the first two to four weeks of treatment to drastically improve aesthetic and functional healing outcomes by reducing scarring, fibrosis, and contracture. Our regenerative platform will thereby result in significant mitigation of disability and disfigurement - as a result patient quality of life will no longer be significantly diminished following a serious burn.
Great Responsibility
Immense Potential, and
Burn injuries are a leading cause of extended hospitalization worldwide. In low and middle income countries, women and children are most at risk of this horrific injury. As treatment is less accessible, morbidity is much higher. Survivors are left disfigured, disabled, and often socially ostracized.
Globally, more than 11 million people are burned significantly enough to require medical attention every year. More than 180,000 die of their injuries, primarily in low and middle income countries.
