Burn Surgery

Reconstruction aims at rebuilding the lost form and function. 

• Early reconstructive burn surgery is done before burn scars mature to allow early healing of the wounds. (It takes around six to eight months for the scars of burns to mature.) 
• Late reconstructive burn surgery is done after the scars are mature. 
  Burn surgeons perform tissue expansion, free flaps, perforator-based flaps, super charged flaps and skin grafting. Ears may be reconstructed using one’s own cartilage or artificial support. 
• Prosthesis is used when there are parts that cannot be reconstructed or when the patient wants early results or to avoid surgery.
• Sometimes the mental and emotional damage is greater than the physical scarring in most severely injured burn victims. Seeing and treating the patient as a whole and supporting the family emotionally and spiritually are all secrets of successful burns surgery.
