processed tissue material having first and second opposed surfaces, the first and second opposed surfaces bounded by first and second edges, the first edge having a concave shape that curves toward the second edge, the second edge having a convex shape that curves away from the first edge, wherein the first surface is meshed to form a plurality of apertures with a predetermined density,
wherein the plurality of apertures are a plurality of linear apertures, and the plurality of linear apertures extend in a substantially vertical direction substantially parallel to a line bisecting each of the first edge and the second edge into two equal parts.
