Skin grafting is a surgical procedure employed to treat extensive skin loss or non-healing wounds caused by burns, trauma, or surgical removal of skin lesions.
During the procedure, a piece of healthy skin is removed from one area of the body (the donor site) and transplanted to the damaged or affected area. Skin grafts promote wound healing, reduce pain, and improve cosmetic outcomes. This versatile technique offers a vital solution for patients with significant skin loss, facilitating the repair and restoration of damaged skin.
