The patients suffering from acute burns due to flames, chemicals and acids, hot fluids or electric flash are first made to undergo debriding a process of dead tissue. This process is followed by the reconstructive surgery for burns which is a perfect remedy for such patients. The surgery is also helpful at treating post burn contractures, thick hypertrophic scars which also causes deformities of several body parts.

The cosmetic surgery has several types of wound treatments which are recommended by surgeons according to the degree of burns. The procedure of reconstructive surgery for burns is known as Skin Graft. This procedure is used often for burn patients, involves removing of the skin from an unaffected part of body and transplanting it to the burnt area. The process of skin graft is done in two different ways according to the condition of burns:

• Split thickness grafts: in this process only a few layers of deep skin are transplanted.
• Full thickness grafts: this process involve transplantation of all the dermis.

The procedure of Plastic Surgery for burns is done with the help of a special skin- cutting instrument known as a dermatone which removes the skin from the donor site. This graft is then placed on the area that is damaged due to burns with stitches which thereafter will be dressed into bandages. The donor site is also covered with dressing to prevent any kind of infections.

The recovery time for different stages of treatment for burns is different usually a split thickness skin graft is fairly rapid and takes less than three weeks. The full thickness skin graft patients take a few weeks longer for recovery period.
