Thrombin can be soaked in gelatin sponges to aid in direct coagulation

Absorbable gelatin sponge is a medical device used to provide pressure to bleeding surfaces and is used as a hemostatic device in surgical procedures. Purified animal gelatin is used to make the sponge. To aid in the direct promotion of coagulation, gelatin sponges can be soaked in thrombin. They're utilised in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetic surgery to mend broken capillaries, increase firmness and elasticity, regenerate collagen, and restore connective tissue, among other things. They have the advantage of being accessible in a variety of shapes and sizes, as well as being easily moulded for skin insertion.

Non-toxic, easy-to-use, and non-necrotic absorbable gelatin sponges are extensively utilised in dentistry offices. Wounds, burns, cuts, and bruises can all be treated with these products. They're great for wrinkles, pigmentation markings, brown spots, acne scars, and other superficial skin imperfections. However, because they retain the water content of the wounds, they may not be as useful in repairing facial scars and blemishes. Furthermore, using this sort of gelatin sponge does not aid in the elimination of water-insoluble stains from the skin's surface.
