Abstract
The present invention discloses a mesh like fabric for implantation beneath or within the dermis to control formation of scar tissue; the fabric being aligned such that its axis having the greatest resistance to distension is aligned parallel to the predominant stresses to which a wound is thought to be subject these being principally parallel to the wound line; axes of the fabric having lesser resistances to distension serving to control other stresses within the dermis transverse to the predominant longitudinal stresses; the fabric being provided with a binder in order to maintain the mesh structure in a known pre-stressed orientation.
