I don't know if that's accurate. I had some significant skin grafting done and the plastic surgeon used Tegaderm over the donor site. It seemed to heal nicely.
I've also used Tegaderm a fair amount. I can't tell if my wounds healed faster, but I did not have to deal with seepage through bandages or clothing, and the lack of exposure to air controlled the pain a lot.
In terms of healing "better", I don't know how you quantify that. What does that mean, or to what are you referring? Less scarring perhaps?
