Materials used for wound care have evolved from simple covers to functional wound dressings with bioactive properties. Electrospun nanofibers show great similarity to the natural fibrillar structure of skin extracellular matrix (ECM); therefore, by mimic, the morphology of ECM, nanofibers show high potential for facilitating the healing of skin injuries. Besides morphology, scaffold composition is another important parameter in the production of bioactive wound dressings. Collagen type I is the main structural protein of skin ECM is biocompatible, biodegradable, and its extraction from animal sources is relatively simple. The fabrication of electrospun wound dressings based on collagen and its blends have been studied for skin tissue engineering applications. This review focus on the new advances of collagen electrospun materials for skin wound treatment. It summarizes the recent research on pristine collagen, collagen blends, and collagen surface modifications on nanofibers mats. Finally, the strategies for three‐dimensional nanofibers production will also be discussed.
